EK2 maker mark - What do you guys think?

[JerryW]

Gents,

What do you guys think this mark is? It looks like L14 to me, minus the "/". Sorry for the small picture and thanks in advance.

[JerryW]

[JerryW]

Lets see if it works this time

I can't see the mark to well but it looks very similer to my mark of 142.

Here is a close up of my 142 mark on the ring.

[JerryW]

Greg,

They look very close - can you post a picture of the full obverse for comparison. Thanks.

Jerry

[Greg S]

Hey Jerry here is the obverse.

[Greg S]

Here is the reverse.

Greg,
Your mark looks more like "132" to me.

I agree with Brett.... 132 for Franz Reischauer Oberstein

[Greg S]

I think ya'll are right. Here is another I had identified as 132 and it is the same. Same bad strike.

Hi Greg
I did also see some wrong there. I also agree its 132, but that is not a listed EK maker. There is a old tread you should look at and make a reply to, search on LDO. Well i need to change my loogs
and put in 132 as an EK maker.

Cheers,
Joao Alberto.

Good to know you guys are on the forum! I am very pleased with both EK2s. I have sent pictures of the cased "26" EK1 for you guys to look at. Take care and tell your brother hello.
