    Spanish Cross in Silver

    Any comments on this one? I don't care for the detail but everything else in the collection was good.

        Need better straight on pics. Maker mark etc. I think it actually might be a good one with a replaced pin.

          Definately need better pictures. The thing I do not like about this (other than the pin) is that the swords have been poorly/crudely cut out. It looks like whoever did it figured the central button would cover it up. But it also looks like at least one of the eagles is soldered on with the swas about 1/2 covered up by the button. Possibly good as Sal mentioned with replacement pin. Also the possibility that it was modified after production to remove the swords. Or maybe just a fake. Better pictures.

            That style pin is pretty popular with some EK fakers from eastern Europe. From the reverse the SC looks crudely executed.

              the attachment of the disc looks crude particularly, but no way to be sure without good clear pics.

                  Not really good enough but I am thinking it is fake. Need clear close ups of eagles catch, mm, center and the reverse center which seems very screwed up.

                    Thanks, I'm thinking with this much negativity I'm not going to pursue it further. I really appreciate the input but if it's gotta be explained this much it's a dustbin piece . Thanks to all for the input!

                      IMO not original.
