Reading Stauffer en brillianten in one sentence raises serious questions.
There catalog is Always full of junk.

[Gary Symonds]

Fake. The sharp pointed leaves, leave no doubt in my mind.

I am amazed that the experts said this was an original.

So we have a questionable auctionhouse, Klietmann with way over 70 and end of his life some funny EO and Hüsken who was never a real expert

[Dietrich Maerz]

And again, somebody will fall for it. It is sad that in 2019 this is possible!
Hüsken never was and never will be an expert. In his foreword to his 2012 price guide he revealed his full ignorance of the topic by dedicating 2 full pages as a critique of my book. He made the most astonishing assertions, like Dr. Doehle and the Präsidialkanzlei never had more than two Knights Crosses as samples and all awards were handled by the branches of the army (true for war medals, but not for orders). His ignorance culmilated in the explanation to the readers that Otto Schickle never made any Knights Crosses and was solely specialized in miniatures. It takes a special brain to put something like that in print in anno 2012!
In the same catalog he shows the fake Diamonds. He also asserts that there are (or were) Swords made of "metal" and silvered. Of course, he also shows the typical L 12 fake, like Niemann also liked to do.
All this flies in the face of the reserach we all have done over the last 18 years and it is a n unexcusable shame that there are still outfits, like this "auction house" that offer such POS. And I also say this: they might even know that it is a fake and they just fall back on long disqualified opinions to cover the offering. Shamefull, I say!

Who is gonna pay 100.000 for such a piece of s**it ??

Their sales ideology seems to bedave:
"Every morning wakes up an idiot, you'll only have to find him ! "

Stay away from such auction houses and don't hesitate to say what you hold from their dubious offers.
Greetings from GERMANY
