Juncker EKII

[Steve Mezey]

Hi All
I was wondering if one of you EK experts can confirm that this EKII is in fact a piece made by Juncker? I am going by the cross-hatching? The ring is missing and the eyelet is not the original a repair job of some sort.

As always your opinions are much appreciated

Please show sharp picture of date by revers.

I think it is EK2 by Anton Schenkl's Nachf., Wien .... but I am't sure yet&

Yes, you are right, of course. The OP is 100% Juncker, even with the lug removed it's easy to spot by the shape.

I think it is EK2 by Anton Schenkl

No way it's a 27, it's not even close.

...although that 27 you just showed Kirill is very nice, with the less-common # frame and in great condition.

Looks strange for a Juncker ?? Do not think it had a lug .
One can still see where the jump ring was before which is the reason for the repair . Crude filing to remove the solder on the reverse . Not factory done .
Has the frame been opened . If so the core was not put back in correctly ...and the jump ring had to moved 90 degrees .
If Steve could see if the frame is magnetic ? That red stuff looks like rust , which would make it a Ni-plated steel frame (late war) ??

Frame is non-magnetic and yes there are signs that the lug was ground off. Tried to take photos but my batteries need recharge will post some later.

Hi Douglas,

Have you ever seen a steel-frame Juncker? I'd love to see one.

[Douglas 5]

Just wondering what that red stuff was .
For EK1s they did remove the lug . Possibly they had to 're-borrow' the frame ?
Removing the lug for or during a repair seams very odd .

No Trevor .... wondering what the red stuff on the beading was . Juncker did try an experimental frame alloy .
S&L and W&L had early Ni plated copper frames and I have a late war Ni plated zink frame EK2 .
