First of many from inherited collection

[andya]

Hi
This is the first Iron Cross of many for which I need help.It appears to have a double maker mark? to the rear of the pin. this reads 20 and I think L/52-in a box.
Can you confirm if this a genuine piece and who the maker is. I will try to post a few diffeent pics for your assistance.
Thanks
Andy

Is that good or bad. Sorry to sound stupid but I would like to grade the collection in order of desirability. Where does this stand?

Double marked are rarer than single marked. This is GOOD But I can't say how double marked Zimmermans rank as far as being rare unto themselves. There are others here with more knowledge on that detail.

They are rare but not that rare. I have seen lot off this dubbel markt Zimmers, i have 2 my self. But they are more rare than a single markt Zimmerman. You can look in the tread rarity state in the knipe a nice tread run by member Blitz. Any way it´s a nice EK you have there.
