EK2 set review (un16 with envelope)

[sanya13]

Hí guys
Now bought this the EK2 set,me already have this the type (mm) but yet missed the unmarked type this the manufacturer.

However I noticed, something I have not seen so far,
the on the Swastika between the stems What is may this is? (maybe only one faulty core)
But,Totally looks out on a small pedestal.

What is your opinions about it
I tried do it good pictures about it ,and I hope seems, that what I was thinking .

Hi Sanya,

Everything is O.K.
We have 2 types core of crosses EK2-1939 Rettenmaier (16).
They differ in appearance date of 1939 - the first type has a regular date of 1939 and a swastika without marked pedestal, the second type has a characteristic outlier "9" on the date of 1939 and a swastika with the selected pedestal.

Hi guys :
As far as cores go Rettenmaier actually has 3 cores . This core is found only in early crosses - very worn tips on the center emblem ...
... and should mention the very worn die condition compared to the other 2 ... which makes me think it must have been an initial purchase until they could get a new core die set up .

Why a maker does not mark all the crosses made by him, like this case here
Thanks
