Jump ring is at a slight diagonal as it is attached to the front and back frame in different spots... Here is the die flaw across the lower part of the ribbing at 12 o'clock...

Only maker I personally am aware of having a flaw like that is "6" Zimmermann but if I recall I saw it on their EKI, not II. Definitely wait for someone else though. To me the core looks like a super weak strike, if it is Zimmermann, although I am admittedly NOT a pro with that maker lol.....

Editing to point out that after looking at it, it may not be such a week strike as all the gunk just makes the date appear so. Just an observation.Comment

It may be a 109.

Trevor, you sure know your crosses! Looks like a 109 to me too... And yes Ryan, the core is a very weak strike. The whole cross is probably late war since it has many die flaws and the core lacks any real definition... Thanks!Comment
