was the pin and catch of this kind never used on Iron crosses during ww2?

Hello,

it is one of the most to find copies of the Schinkel 1st class.

Actually already to detect as a copy from the obverse and the reverse says all.
I think a dangerous copy for a biginner or a collector who has not crosses as his main field.

This attachment assembling in this shape has not been used on Iron Crosses.

Best Franki

And remeber the front is very much like a orginal, or what folks say is a orginal.
Imo those shinkel are a mine field.

Thanks Flak88 for this informative Link with outstanding examples.
Since i found this forum my database crows much more than the last half year.

This is my favorit I love Meybauer EK1 and they have also the pins that are my favorite System. For me this needle is the ferrari of the pins. High quality manufactured and shape like a perfect woman.
