Not always, but usually, the unmarked examples of any given maker are finer quality because they are earlier.

In my opinion marked crosses are waaay overrated.

[Volksgrenadier 44]

Well thats what makes this hobby/forum so interesting imo Steptile.We all have opinions and i dont disagree with you at all,Marked crosses can be overated/overpriced too,Guess it just so happened that probably the first 15 or so EK2s i aquired happened to be marked examples
Earlier examples in most cases as you say are finer,Do you believe this cross to be an early Rudolf Souval!! Im not sure at all!

Cheers,,
Ross
