thanks

[germanmedals]

It looks longer than standard loop. Post the whole pic.

Sedlatzek knights crosses are thought to be pre LDO made pieces .the long suspension loop is found on some sedlatzek crosses like the one in dietrichs book. 3/4. KC's also use a longer suspension loop .

The RK in the image is the same size as the EK1 not larger as you would expect. Is it an optical illusion caused by the angle the photograph has been taken, or is an EK2 being worn around the neck?

The ring on it is of an RK, not ek2
