    Gold EKII

    While this rightly belongs in the Imperial section, just thought this piece interesting enough to have a short view in the Crosses of the Wehrmacht -

    Learned from the Imperial Forum that this is the equivalent of the EKII, and is from the state of Mecklenburg-Schwerin.

    It is a 'Militarverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse'

    The center is not magnetic - this cross appears to be constructed just the same as a WWI or WWII EKII.

    Have put up quite a few pics in Imperial.

    When purchased had absolutely no idea what it was....
    Just like a knowledgeable (and sane!) collector...

    Any info at all is most welcome -

    All the Best,

    Phil

    Those damn Mecklenburgers were the first to copy the EK!
    HA just kidding.

    Nice looking piece!

    The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good.

      Hi Phil,

      The cross should be 1-piece, ie solid, not like Prussian EKs which are 3-piece (excluding eye/ring loops).

      Very nice crosses though!

      Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

          Hello Greg, Mike and Brians

          Thank you all very much!

          Now to find the ribbon...

          the piece does appear to be solid, non-magnetic.

          This forum is absolutely incredible!!!!

          On rarity - rarity and value do not go hand in hand, of course,
          for even if a piece is rare it is not that valuable unless there
          is a demand for it....

          All the Best,

          Phil
