    Ek2 mm 100 fakes?

    General question regarding MM 100 EK2's. The #100 Ek's have the little extension from the frame to attach the jump ring, has this style been faked?

    I have not seen a fake 100 markt EK2, maybe George have. And its very easy to see a 100 even if its unmarkt.

      Hi Chief,

      I think the 100 would be one of the more difficult EK's to fake because of the "crunching" in the beading on the inside corners of the cross.

      BUT, never say never.

        I'm not aware of any fake "100s."

          I also have not seen any but I do have a 100 Reproduction in the mail that supposedly looks like the real this, but it is 1 piece cast. I posted it a while ago and while the consensus was that the picture was of a real 100 the seller claims that the picture shown is of the exact crosses they sell.

          Again still waiting for htis package to arrive. Its Christmas so god only knows when.

            Shane,

            I was just searching for the thread about that cross.

            Here it is for everyone to look at.

              Thanks for the response, and I saw the thread about the repo 100. There was a seller on e-bay on Monday had two Rk's and two EK2s. I was on the phone to them after trying to get pictures (for whatever reason I couldn't get them) after trying to guide the seller through I couldn't really tell whether I was dealing with real ones or fakes. I almost bought one of the EK's when I looked at the pictures again and discovered that the two seperate auctions had the same picture. Each one had the little tip for the jump ring but each had an RK Ribbon with the same wrinkles. I passed because I just couldn't find out what I was getting.
