EK2 uncertain maker

[Woolgar]

Bought this fascinating cross.

No one is sure of the maker, Douglas is on the case and thinks it could be a Zimmermann.

I would be grateful for any other opinions please

Seller can send some close up pics if required, my camera is not up to the job!

Hello guys,

the cross was mine. Its a very interesting piece, the date on the front is very similar to the Pforczheim maker's. IMO the core is unmagnetic made from zinc. The swastika has a pyramid style design.
I post some close ups:

A mystery wrapped inside an enigma. Unknown to me, but fascinating. Glad it stayed in the family of posting members.

Looks like Daniel got it . I could not match the core to this one yet ... had other things to attend to .

Cool, so this could be the early variant.

Nice cross, Nick
I will post my marked L/56 later for you to compare.

In fact, I just found pictures of my 2 L/56 Ek2's. The pics are done with my old camera, so they are not good at all.
But I hope you can compare..
