Knights Cross on Militariaweb

[paddy]

It would be great if the KC experts in the forum could give some comments on this auction currently running on Militariaweb:

Actually I do not expect an original KC in this category ("Originals without guarantee"), but as I am not that experienced which details to consider it would be great to get some input basing on this example.

Thanks.

Translated through Google.com:

Core: Iron (magnetic), dimensions: 48.0 x 48.1 mm, height with eye 54.2 mm, wing tip edge-ride framework 4.3 mm, width cross arm 27.4 mm, HK 8.1 mm, weight 31.48 g; Feingehaltspunze on knight cross and jump ring "800"; Whether I cannot judge original or copy. If copy, then one very, very much PROPERTY. No copy of the "bar". The opinions go very far apart. 1998 I this RK 2x without problems to sell (5,000.00 DM) could have done. 2004 lehen the same "considerable" persons at one time off!!! Give no return right! Therefore the starting price of 1,00? everyone should know even, what is worth the piece. Please take also distance from various purchase suggestions etc.! The cross already cost me to enough nerves! Unzensiertes photo on request, please email address do not forget!


To me the photos are to small and to dark to say anything for sure.

Cheers.

Here are some better pictures. I was already asked about this cross and I don't think it is a good one at all.
