Very nice example

Looks to be a very nice example, yes.

I used to own one of these, and it was advised by others on this forum to look at the outside edges of the cross, around it's perimeter, to be sure the patina there matched the patina on the flange of the cross. The reason being, as it was told me, is some Ubergrosses have been filed down by fakers in the not-to-distant past to sell the cross for a higher price than a standard Ubergrosse. I personally have never paid much attention to the costs one against the other so I can't be of help there. But, the former makes good sense, the patina should be the same if it was filed down back in the war period.
