german cross in silver good/bad?

Hi Schönbeck, I would say the cross is bad. I base my opinion on the width of the red border which looks very wide? This is often the case with some fakes
Hope this helps you?
Cheers, Ade. -

I agree with Adrian on this cross. The red enamel is way too wide to the extent that the swastika over laps the red border inside the wreath. The wreath detail is also different from original examples. This extremely good fake has appeared on the market in the last two years or so and is thought to have originated in the East, probably Latvia. Various numbers have been seen on the back.Originally posted by schönbeck
Hope this helps some. Be careful!An opinion should be the result of thought, not a substitute for it.

I agree, many wrong points.

... including the shape of the pin, which - compared to an original - is too wide and "pregnant" looking. This is one of the Latvian specials.Originally posted by IVAN
