knights cross with oakleaves from Dickfeld !

[Dietrich Maerz]

Had I posted this set prior to the Dickfeld set, I would have been the object of scorn and ridicule.

Maybe, but surely not from me. I don't know what it is but it is not the same as the Juncker L/12 900 I posted.

I don't Know, Dietrich, but it has all the same flaws on the raised edges of the oak leaves. 900 hallmark is the same. I think it is the earliest production of the Juncker Oak Leaves. The loop is a Juncker Knight's Cross loop silver soldered to the reverse.

Hi Bob,

check against this pictures. I see some similarities, but some not. The 900 surely looks to be the same stamp, though. But I know that it is very difficult to compare oaks via pictures only.

All the fingerprints you posted are on my example. However, mine looks sharper and crisper than the Dickfeld set.

There you go! Must be earlier then. Congrats!

Dietrich,

I will bring them to the next show we are both attending. This way, you can do a 'hands on' and photograph for comparison.

The knight's Cross is a zinc cored, unmarked, Juncker.

My favorite type of RK. Can we see a photo of the cross as well please?
