EK II fake?

[richthofen_117]

Hello Everybody!

I just bought this EKII mm27,but I was told it's a fake!

Am I in error on this one?

Thanks for your precious answers...

No, it's an original in my eyes but what's up with the core? Has it rusted and been repainted?

As long as you didn't pay too much for it, there are plenty of '27's around in original condition.

Yes original but a shame about the paint job .

[Steinar]

no worries.

Due to the horrible paint job I would not want it in my collection - original but badly tampered with.

Thanks for your most valuable knowledge guys! Many thanks to all!

Here is my another EK II without maker's number, but in good condition, is it orginal?

The second cross is nice but, the packet is unfortunatly a reproduction.

Cross and ribbon are good, possibly S&L, the packet I agree with Les, not good.
