Iron Cross 2nd Class - Is this a fake?

[ire79uk]

Hi, I am posting this question plus a few others for a friend. He purchased these medals recently but is concerned that he has fakes. I am no expert as I too am new to this hobby. I know all you experts will be able to tell ... I will be starting seperate treads for each medal, 4 in all. I want to say thank you in advance for your help. --- (3 of 4) This one is an Iron Cross 2nd Class. We can not really make out the maker mark. Any comments on the medal or the ribbon? Thx

Really don't see anything wrong with this one. The attaching ring is kind of different, but overall looks pretty good. Can't really tell what the maker mark is...

Hello,

I agree, the cross looks to be a good one but that is one weird ring loop.

Can you read that maker mark; it would help us all out a lot.

Looks ok to me and the small ring is different I know but I have a #15 with that type of ring.

Thank you all for your responces...my friend took another look at the maker mark and thinks it looks like a 75?

[Hank C.]

Good chance of it being a 15 then, I don't think this matches the 75's.
