I was of course talking about the DAO.

Hi!

IMO the EK 1 is a Floch fake with the "A" Type needle. I think the repair of the catch is artificial.
I am not surely 100% because the 1939 date on the most Floch fakes is low down.
Let us wait for more opinions.

Hi,

IMO the EK1 is a nice original later Meybauer (clearly correctly marked 7 on the pin) with an old catch repair. A nice honest example.

You do not have to know much about DAOs to know this one is bad, simply because of the typical post-war hardware.

Hi,

what i've written in posting #20 is wrong. I compared the piece with a few examples of Meybauer crosses and I think Mike is right. It's a late wartime Meybauer IC 1. Class.

The first one is adler orden, i got it from a trusted guy that told me that a swedish guy in german service was participating in the spanish war and was the owner of this. It costed me a farmyard. Comment is welcome

I hope that you can get your money back...

I see a slight diffrence in the hinge and hook and yours is whit marker mine is not, but i am intrested in any knowlede on this cross and maybee more variation exists.

This DAO is clearly a post-war made piece.
Sorry.


Best,

Thanks alot guys!

Hi again and thanks for evaluation on my DOA and EK1 cased, glad to hear about my EK1 and its makes me happy when its a real one the thing that confused me was the stamp on needle is up side down but as i understand its normal (but confusing)

About the DOA i did get my money back and the only feeling now is that i had a possible good DOA in hand and its turned out to be a fake i hate that feeling more than getting my money back.

your great guys thanks for helping me on that issue.

cheers
Carsten

Hello,

The Eagle Order is far from original.

The EK_1 is original and NOT A REPRODUCTION. It is marked "7" on the pin and is textbook for this maker.
