    I need your help to know if this cross is original, it doesn't have marks.
    Thanks to all for your opinions
    Best regard

      It looks good to me. Have you tried comparing to those listed on the WA site?

              Hi Manu,

              It appears to be a nice unmarked Meybauer. The block hinge is fixed at a very strange angle though!

                  I agree with Mike. It's an unmarked Meybauer. No problems.

                    It is very similar to a cased cross that I purchased recently that is also unmarked. The pin and block hinge are a bit different than mine however. George, would you mind giving your opinion on mine?

                      Excuse me, this cross can be "4" or a "11" as makers?
                      The guy that sold to me him has two boxes that to the inside, removing the support of the cross they have a number writing to pencil, and he doesn't remember what is the box of the cross that he has sold to me, but it is sure to have had it with the box. The number is 4 or 11 (it is not understood well, is written strange).
                      The other box have writing in the inside 105.
                      Thanks in advance for your help
                      Best regards

                        Hi Manu,

                        The numbers in the boxes bear NO relation to the maker of the cross. The pencil numbers are more like "assembly" or quality control numbers for whoever made the cases.

                        Your cross bears the obverse features and very distinctive (earlier) main pin used by Meybauer.

                        There are some cases that have a printed maker mark on the lower left of the upper white silk lining (eg Meybauer, Q&K). Some cases have the maker name stamped into the black covering on the bottom of the case (eg Deumer).

                        Regards
                        Mike
                        Regards
