Non Magnetic IK

[gunbb]

I have a book on 3R awards and they say there were these non-magnetic,[don't stick to a magnet], Iron Crosses. I have one that I always considered phoney. It looks good but........ It has a 113 stamped into the catch pin. Any good ?? Thanks, BB

Need to see it.

However, 113 made no EK1s as far as we know, and no non-magnetic EK2s. Also, marking the catch would be very odd -- never seen it on a (1939) EK1.

So I bet your cross is not good, but again, let's see it before we crucify it.

A cross that is non-magnetic can certainly be a good one though.

Ooooooh, a mystery! Let's see it!
