Hi,

Just thought I would post this Ubergrosse and its original packet and ribbon.

The cross weighs in at 22.7gms.

Height & width 47mm.

Cross non maker marked.

The packet is marked 'Frank & Reif Stuttgart'

Another one of my favourites

To Johnny,
They may well be called other names, I've only Known them as "UberGrosse" and no, they are not from the same die stamps as the RK, they may be larger than ordinary EK's but they are not as large as the RK.

Regards
Andy

Hello... I don't have one of these "big" Ek's but due to this thread I now know that this big blue envelope that I have is not a repro but correct to a cross. THANKS!
