Welcome to the forum and congratulation to your first EK2.
The cross is original. Here is a 65 from my collection:

That is a very nice 65, I love the K&Q crosses. I can't tell from the pics, but the the swas vaulted on yours. That feature on mine makes it my favorite EKII
Interested in candid/private Hitler, KIA, and Holocaust photos. Also any AH related memorabilia--silverware, linen, crystal, china...
All the best,

Hi Chris,
If you check through the forum until you find the thread
EKII Packet By Klein & Quenzer
you will see the packet that '65' EKII's were issued in.
Hopefully my packet is authentic like your EKII.

Thanks for your comments guys. My swastica looks slightly vaulted as well. I did get a packet of issue with my EK2 but it's for a different maker, 'Jakob Bengel'.Originally posted by Peter WikingComment

Nice first Cross Chris!
