    ek2 opinions please

    this walked into a local gun show today along with two long service medals, hind.cross, a vets medal and a couple of other small pins. I was a little concerned with it. It is a one piece construction with no maker marks on the ring or anywhere else that i can find. It is magnetic, the construction looks very consistent, no overlapping of the beading in the corners, a little flaking of paint on the 3 0'clock arm. dates look good, so does the swaz. Your opinions are welcome. The pieces belong to the sellers father-in-law, an 82 year old vet. He does have some other items I will getting a look at soon.I expressed my concerns about the one piece construction and he will refund based upon your opinions. thank you for your help. frank v.

                What makes you think it's one piece construction?

                  I could not see an type seem around the outer edge of the cross. however after reading your response and getting a better loop out I can see it just a bit on the edges around the inner part of the arms.

                  Do you have any other thoughts on it?

                        I have to agree with Darrell, I can't see anything much wrong with it and it doesn't appear to be a one piece cross. Have you tried slipping a piece of paper between the beading and core?
