EK-1 Marked 20

[g43cart]

Hello guys,has anyone seen or have a EK-1 that has the number 20 stamp to the back of the badge itself,the 20 is just below the hinge part of the badge.It is also a magnetic type of badge.I have a chance to buy it but like your thoughts or maybe a pics of one,that is if its not a repo.All replies are welcome.Thanks

Pictures are always recommended when trying to get an opinion. The 20s I have seen are marked on the pin itself, underneath.

can you get any pictures of it to show us ?

[g43cart]

I can't get any pics of the badge guys,but all of the 20's I'v seen on this form were marked on the pin,not on the badge itslef below the hinge.I'm thinking it might be a repo,but I'm not sure.

without pictures nobody will be able to tell you ,,,,


what wood be the price off the ek ?

[g43cart]

The price would be $250.00 for it.

[Steve Campbell]

I'd say don't bother. Real 20 marked EK2s are not hard to find and $250 is not a sweet deal. It's a fair price but you should be able to do the same if you keep watching the Estand. You'll get a real one this way. Here's mine, a good one. Does it look anything like this?:

This is the rear.

Here's the mark in the spot it's suppose to be. Is the 20 stamped like this?

[g43cart]

Steve I think I'll take your advice on this matter,besides I was thinking the sameway.Anyway thanks to all you guys for the info about this subject.

The EK looks like yours ,but there is no 20 stamped onto the needle.The 20 is stamped just below the hinge -right into the back of the badge itself. Sure whis I had some pics but I don't.
