Iron cross, orginal or?

[Gulli]

Hallo
And thanks again.
Well I can only tell you that I have not made it.
And I hope some Norwegian collectors can back me up regarding
me as a serious collector.
But as you already have noticed I'm not a cross or medal collector.
But I collect helmets mostly.And some uniforms and all the bits who goes whit that


But I hope this one is a good one.
And I can try to take some more pics if you want/need it.
And any collector living in Norway are welcome to come and have a hands on inspection.

Best regards
Gulli

Now those new pics show the cross in a whole new light and I take back what I have said regarding its possible originality.
Douglas has called it correctly. It now looks like the cross has been prised open and re-closed, leaving some gaps which have been filled and then filed down, very crudely.

Hallo
I just want to say thanks a lot to you who have been so kind to
answer me regarding this cross.

I had a little hope it might be a good one, but thats the way collecting
Dritten Reich stuff is.
A whole lot of fakes and stuff.

So again thank you.
Brest regards

Sorry it turned out this way :
I have seen one like this before and .... the side view shows it all . Destroying a 128 EK2 that way . The bent frame , fill and file marks do not match .
To good to be true , matching file marks first thing to check out .
Just for future reference : a S&L EK2 showing the continuous file lines !
