Unmarked EK2!

[lee-clark]

Hello to all,
recieved this EK2 this morning and would like to know if anybody could say which maker this could be from.
This cross is slightly smaller than my 65 and also has crosshatching. Please note the hump where the ring is attached to the cross. Also it is of 3 piece construction and also has a magnetic core!
Could this possibly be a junker?
Any infomation would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks,
lee-clark

Interesting, ... Juncker EK2's still hold some unknowns ,when reading through old posts, possible variants and as such tricky , ... see what the main collectors say about it .

Hello guy's,
aren't there any Junker experts out there that could shed some light on this possible Junker? Have looked in the Forum, but could not find anything certain one way or the other.
Best regards,
Lee

I think it's no Juncker EK, because there is no convexity at the top of the frame near the ring. The convexity is a distinctive feature from Juncker.

So, if this is not a Junker, what maker could this be from? Anyone! Please

Hi!

Grueni is right. Because of my bad english i didn't find the right words yesterday.

Neglecting the convexity, waffling, and other distinct features, could one say it can't be a Juncker because it does not have a brass ring?
Did all or only a portion of Juncker EK2s have those?

Curious what maker it's from.... I'll keep watching!

[lee-clark]

Thanks for the replies guy's, but unfortunately we are no nearer to the maker of this cross!
Anyone else care to have a go?

Lee-Clark ;
The EK of yours did at one time have a hump, pictures shows it , only that is was filed down , or the die was plugged , so the hump does not cut out anymore when the die strikes the frame-sheets !
I am working on a something that might indicate a Junker die , that might have been used for contract work for other companies , like 109 .

Douglas, a man after my own heart. I have some Juncker-types bought from Detlev over the years, full waffling adjacent the swastika and on the outside corners of the frames. Humps, brass rings, etc. I recently purchased another Juncker-type on the e-stand, with typical hump on frame for jump ring, and waffling - with a 'possible' '109' ring stamp. Oh, yeah! See what you think. First a typical iron-cored Juncker -type, then the same cross with a distinct '09' on the ring. Not a '109', but a faint '0', then a distinct '9' - like the stamp was off center when struck.

One more Juncker-type without ring stamp...

This time the '09' stamped Juncker-type cross...
