ek vaulted.

[redfaced]

I have just purchased my first EK1 It's vaulted. I wanted to ask the experts about vaulted EK's. Mine shows a few dots on the reverse which where I assume it helped with the bending process. Is this correct/usual? Has anyone got an EK like this with the dots in the center of the reverese arms? Mine isn't maker marked.

Are these awards more desirable than the flat awards??
Also, if I may ask, a good price to have paid?
Thanking you in advance.

Hello...
May you post some pictures? some time the cross is vaulted by the soldier who earned it. If there is a line on the back of the cross in the inner arms and in the coners were meet the swastica are a little rised... it was bend by the soldier...

Once we see pics we can maybe give you a decent guess. If the price was okay for you to buy it, really doesn't matter what we think!
