Lets Judge some un markt 1EK´s

[meriksson]

Here is 2 unmarkt EK to be judged, i do in my mind have them
but i want a second opinon. EK on left messure 43,8 high and 44 width, and 3mm thick. EK On right 44 x 44 and 3,2mm thickness.
Left has a catch off flat wire. Right has a round wire catch. Both near mint and have frosting, there is no crosshacting!.
Lets hear what you think!.

The one on the left has a catch other than what I am used to seeing, and has a bit of the wire sticking out of the hinge, and I find this a bit unusual...but I would say by looking at the pictures that the pieces are good, probably later war production, that stayed in nice shape with the help of the protective cases, John

What is your opinion Meriksson?

Hi!
Finally a reply. Well both are non magnetic whit zinc cores i think.
I do hold the left one to be 100/L55 Wachtler & Lange. And the right one 2/L12 Junker, i cant find any other EK makers whit this
date change, that match this ones. I have compared them both
to my 100 markt EK and the left one match pin and catch and also
date, but my 100 is a bit rusty so i cant compare the swaz. The
right one has different pin and catch and also it have a much higher swaz and more defined than the left one. And finaly the paint jobb is not the same on them!.
