Cased Knights Cross Opinoins

[bsrmilitaria]

Well, I know this is a huge stretch - but I was offered this cross today and wanted to hear what you guys thought.

I have never bothered with them because of their price point, so this is really out of my knowledge base. I am sorry if this is a very bad fake, but would be very happy to hear that is is original

I appreciate the help and look forward to learning from this!

Hi Alex,

Thank you for the quick reply! How can you tell its a postwar made Souval RK?

Thanks again!

Just about everything tells me it‘s a post war Souval RK. The frames, core design, the case... I can even date the cross to a certain manufacturing period due to the amount of flaws on the frame.
Probably the easiest give a way for collectors unfamiliar with these crosses is the dipping „3“ of the 1939 and the low swastika.

Best regards,
Alex

Did they mark them L21?

Okay very good to know! I will look for that in the future.

Thank you for taking the time to respond

Postwar Souval as Alex says, with original case by the looks and bogus mm. The case is not that common.
