That pin is a dead giveaway. Fake. Front looks like it could be 1 piece?

I've seen KVK 1st class with swords with the same pin, i think Polish in origin.

Not a convincing piece at all. And there's that clamshell backing device again.Comment

Agree! The pin is not good and as it doesn´t look replaced (at least judging from these pictures) so the verdict must be "not good".Comment

Hello,
the whole (1st depicted) EK is 100% a copy.

@Baldy
the pin and the hindge has been never used in this design on a temporary EK 1. You can often encounter this set up on well known fakes.
It also doesn't make any difference whether it is an EK1 from 1914 or 1939.
The same apply to the front with the bad executed date and swas.
Further the one piece construction who is very very rare for an EK 1 1939.
I hope this could be of some help.
