    Engraved Schinkel EK1 for review.

    Hello guys,

    what do you think of this cross?
    Engraving looks period to me, i think it has a matching patina.
    Looking forward hearing some comments.

    Greetings

          Not "My" money

          IMO I'd never spend my money on this one

            Me neither, especially when the seller asks 1700$ lol
            But i'm just curious about the cross.

                Cross is a modern fake so I don't have much hope the engraving is period.

                        I have seen these fakes at gun shows here and nearly bought one when I first started collecting crosses, I just got a bad feeling looking at the date and passed on it thankfully.

                        this one being all engraved is quite fancy though with a somewhat convincing patina LOL!

                          A schinkelform (?) fake with engraving and dated 1941 ? ? ?
                          At least, this one is not too dangerous.

                            What the hell is the motif supposed to be anyways??? I didn't like the cross even before seeing the reverse, and that just sealed my suspicion.
