Two different "800" & "L/50"marks on the upper arm of the cross and on the suspension loop.

Silver frame and iron core.

Not an original Knights Cross.

It is a poor fake, I'm afraid.

[Viriathus]

How much did you pay for it?

[Tony T-S]

Souval with fake marks?

[Tom B]

Yes, trash for sure

[Von.Burgdorf]

Souval with fake marks?

NO. This is a Rudolf Souval Knight Cross:

Check to see that the "L/50" is not really "L/58".

[Tony T-S]

From the photos I thought I detected the low swaz and dipping three so wondered about Souval. Does your cross have these?

[Tom B]

Souval = post war junk IMO

"L/58" is Souval's LDO number and appears on many of its pieces (including some of its crosses). "L/58" can be mistaken for "L/50" when the stamping is not clear.

Sorry, I was referring to the mark on the cross itself (the mark on the loop is clearly "L/50".). If the mark on the cross itself is, in fact, also "L/50", then that mark is fake. The cross you posted in Post#1 has all the appearance of (as already noted by "Tony T-S") a postwar Souval cross, with the classic "dipping 3" in the "1939" date on the front. It is not a real Godet (holder of "L/50") cross.
