            Unless I'm very much mistaken that's a Floch


            Cheers,

            At Rathau on the Aller, the CO of 5th Royal Tanks advanced on foot to take a cautious look into the town before his tanks moved in. He encountered one of his own officers, a huge Welshman named John Gwilliam who later captained his country's rugby team, 'carrying a small German soldier by the scruff of his neck, not unlike a cat with a mouse.' The Colonel said: 'Why not shoot him?' Gwilliam replied in his mighty Welsh voice: 'Oh no, sir. Much too small.'

                The shape of the pin for a start. Try to do a search on Floch...I am sure we have seen a very similar one not so long ago.

                        Lynton,

                        Definitely a Floch. Just got caught with one myself a few months ago, but was able to return it.

                            Hi Lynton, I am very sorry that we did not get to meet up at the show today as I could have put you wise to this type of fake cross.

                            Perhaps all is not lost. Send me a PM with a description of the chap and in which hall and roughly where the stall was. I might be able to help? It might be worth contacting the show organisers and asking for a list of stall holders?

                            Did you actually ask the dealers position on the originality of the cross?

                            Cheers, Ade.

                              I think the pin and was discussed already. It is a sheer Floch. It seems like it's everywhere...
