IMO, no. Compare to the examples in the threads Trevor has linked to.
I'm also fairly sure that if it had been, Trevor would have mentioned it.

this one don't seems repainted and for this price, if I didn't already have this variation...

I fully agree!
Usually they miss a lot of paint.

And, because it is a one-piece ek, there can be some paint on the frame.

Hi guys,

In my opinion this one has perfectly original paint and, yes, I would have mentioned it had I suspected it. There is no evidence of repaint at all.

Thank you, Kenneth and those who replied.

Thank you for your support, Josef -- but the original question was legitimate and polite, and need not be ridiculed.

money on... And in this case not so much money for this cross....But it`s only
my opinion.....Tnx Trevor for the cross...

Hi

Here is the reason I posted this one for discussion. The stippling in one section of the cross is gone yet present on the other three sides the swastika. I can see by many of the responses here the Trevor is a much respected guy but all I'm saying is look at the piece not the man. This is not directed a Trevor but as a learning process for everyone.

Hi Kenneth,

No offense taken at all. However, I am 100% convinced this is very good original paint. I have it in my hand and can see this without question. Of course the buyer has a right of return for any reason.

Thanks anyway for posting the question -- a vigorous vetting process is essential.

Best,
Trevor
