3 EK2s for review

[Stepdale]

Hello,
I have the chance to buy these EK2s from a local gentleman. I took the photos in poor lighting conditions so I got a shot of each with and without flash. One of the crosses was marked 98 for Souval on the ring, but the other two are unmarked. I just wanted to see if everything is original and if the makers can be identified. Also, he's probably only selling one so I wanted to see if any one is particularly harder to find than the others.
Thank you,
Dale

=4 (S&L)
=76 (Muller)

Hi Jarek,
Thank you, but I'm a little confused as I only showed 3 crosses. Is the last one (shown twice, once w/ flash and once w/o) a 4 or a 76? Also, if you had a choice to buy only one of these, which would you get?

sorry, you're right - would be :

=98 (Souval with Schenkl's core)
=109 (W&H)
=4 (S&L)

Thanks! I believe I'll go for the unmarked 109 as it's a Gablonzer and I don't think the other two are all that rare or highly sought after.
