Strange EKI L58 Souval, Or Post War Fake?

[Paolo67]

Hi all,
I've recently acquired this EK and I'm a bit confused by it.
The frame isn't Souval, and neither is the core as far as I can tell. It is a well made 3 piece screwback and it has a magnetic core. The anti-rotation pin is on the lower arm, which is a bit odd, and the back screw piece has L58 stamped on it.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

It's a good Weidmann with a Souval disc.

Thanks for the quick reply Streptile.
Can you tell me, please, are EK's by this maker common?

yes, their disc has a lip all the way around. Jim

Thanks Jim. So, the original disc was lost, and somebody put the Souval disc on this cross... I guess it's going to be impossible to find out whether this was done during, or post war.

Yes and someone just replaced it, but when is a good guess. I have seen Wiedmann disc on other crosses also. Jim
