I resume this thread for a question: is your EK Schickle John with magnetic core ?

Thanks

Hi again, yes it has a magnetic core.

Thanks a lot for your answer John.

My question is born because I've found, probably, one Otto Schickle EKII 1939 with no-magnetic core.

But more pics when she comes at home.

Thanks Douglas.

Above your experience this cross present a Nickel alloy or a brass core ??

Thanks.

Hard to say if your core is NI aloy or brass - without an exposed spot on the core . There seams to be a paint chip on the Swastika that is black . Can you tell from there what is below . Paint likes to chip more easily on brass cores .

Some times it is easy to see the core - some times it is not .
