Rusty EKII & EKII for opinions?

[milanche]

Hello volks,

Today I have two rusty crosses to ask you about. I found them yesterday at the flee market.

First one is nicely preserved EKII with "veins" and minor rust. Numbers look very nice too. I like it but I have doubts because of the spot on the back where ring should be attached to the cross. Only this spot gives me some suspicion.

Second one is EKI probably from the ground. Is it possible that center part is so much damaged and rusty and the outer cross looks like new? This great contrast give me some doubts.

Thank you for helping me out with your opinions.

Cheers
