    Opinion on my first EK2

    Again sorry for camera quality... So i went out to buy my self an iron cross first class but the man I get my medals off of didn't have one (dont worry I will be getting one soon enough) Instead however, I came across this magnificent beauty! My first world war 2 iron cross! I was going to wait until after i had the first class because of my ww1 iron cross was in it's place so i diddnt have much need for it... but this was just to much of a chance to to miss! I don't really need your opinion of if it is genuine because It has the makers mark 76 on the ring, it's magnetic, has it's original ribbon (did the black light and flame test it is original)!!! and it is off a very trustworthy source. Cost me £70 so what yah think?

    Hello, congrats on your first ek2. The ribbon is not the correct one for your cross though. However the ribbons for these are easy to pick up and inexpensive. Would be nice to see shots of your mmd 76 straight on though, front ,rear ,ring etc.

    regards John

        Dammit your right! XD wow don't know why i didn't spot that... I now have an original ribbon for another medal (what medal?!?!?!) lolz I honestly think it was a mistake on the other guys part when buying... It doesn't matter to me I can just buy a strip for a £1 somewhere in the future.... the medal it's self is an original though there is no doubt in that!
