Four EK2´s from my uncle

[Pepe77]

Hi guys,

These crosses are right from my uncle´s woodwork. I think they´re all good, but no clue about makers. All unmarked except left one on the first picture. Unfortunately hard to read, 123 maybe.

Some additional pictures possible


Anyway thanks for your help in advance.

What means "woodwork"? I saw it posted many times but don't understand it.

One of the crosses on the second picture looks a K&Q to me.

You got me Hans I saw a word "woodwork" at our american mates and I connected it with some old wooden box or something like that. Am I right there?

Hi Guys......

......"Out of the woodwork" means something has more or less spontaneously appeared. "Out of the blue" also means the same.

Hope this helps.

EDIT: Ooops, posted the same time as Bruce, who described it better

In militaira, it means you did not buy something from a dealer, or from a show, or a website, but found it from the veteran, or the family, etc.

Thanks guys for your explanations, I learned something new today!But how about crosses?

Anything else...

Does your "Unc" have anything else in the woodwork?

I'm quite certain that the marked one is NOT a "123"

But I could be wrong, it's happened before

I would also say that nr 3 is a "65" K&Q

Panzercrackrer, yes he does have some other stuff but nothing unusual. He sold his cholm and DKiG many years ago and regrets this step every day. Prices were at that time ridiculous low.

Nr. 3 is unmarked 65 then.

Better pictures of marked cross are bellow...
