Yep, some crosses have a lot of paint problems, like f.a. the mm107.
But the storage of the cross after the Germans made it had a huger influence.

But I do like them this way.
Here is my hardly worn uncleaned Zimmerman. (only one that I have on a picture in this same condition).

This L/11 is stored in a better environment.

well i like the effect very much

Kay, that is a very nice cross. Just store it in a dry environment away from sticky fingers, and it will stay fine for the next 100 years and beyond.
