German Cross in Gold "1" with case for review

[fabri-online]

I ask to see one more time this wreath, especially the date, straight view.
I don't see a correct date, top of the 1 are not thin, also the foot are a bit different.
Tip of the nose of 4 is different too.
The finish is yellow and not gold as it has to be.

As requested. Sorry, my camera is not perfect for this - but I hope the pictures can help.

I don't need to have my Deschler with me because I have maken a compare with the examples in the DK book and I don't see a match. The date is just very close withca Deschler.
Later I will make a pic compare.

OK, so you think the wreath is a fake?
Because you see it as yellow and in your opinion the date is not matching?

[fabri-online]

yes, in my opinion the wreath is not original.
rest of front side honestly I don't know, if you see something that you don't like then you start to doubt about the rest too. Back side in my opinion is original but these loose rivets are really not normal on a mid-late production.
I have tryed to make a compare, not what I would like to do because are not so detailed but already let understand something.

That is the best I can do at the moment:

Yes, it is.

To compare.

The right picture is made with flash, the left I do not know.

In my view all numbers are matching, the "1", the "9", also the "4" which seems due to the flashlight to have a "big" nose.

But please feel free to comment.

[fabri-online]

Yes, it is.

my question because did not looks the same... but, from last pics, this date is correct for Deschler.. boh.. I am not able to explain this fact but looks it was just my point of view. By the way thanks for additional pics and sorry for this.
