The photos could be better but based on those, the cross does not look to be original.

Sorry.

not good news Peter, but many thanks.
I've posted some better pics: http://groups.msn.com/Lambi/shoebox.msnw
Could You tell me what's wrong with this EK2? (small suspension ring?)

The small ring is not the main problem. There are original crosses with small rings.

My consern is the coils ((((( in the frame. They look random and unsharp.
Another problem is the swastica. Again detail is unsharp.

Cheers.

Here are a few more Peter: http://groups.msn.com/Lambi/shoebox.msnw
But I know what you mean about coils.
If it's a fake, have you ever seen them before?

I´m very sorry but the cross is fake to me. Swastica, frame and paint is of bad quality. Original EK2´s was of very good quality despite being a common award. I can not see that quality in this one.

Again sorry.

I agree Peter, it is not my best buy. I payed 65 Euro's for it. It came with a original ribbon and enveloppe. Next time I'll be better prepared.
Thanks again
