I’ve had this worn EK for some years and just noticed an inscription presumably scratched in by the original owner; any thoughts as to what it says and any meaning beyond the obvious? Thanks for your kind help!

"We all have it coming, Kid" ("Unforgiven") -
This EK1 have the "been there" look.
For me it looks like a period inscription.

I have also an EK1 with inscription.
Not the best picture.

The first cross is simply the holder’s name and address. The second is from a town in Silesia now called Pielgrzymka. Not sure about the monogram.Comment

They both look to be period done to me. I would think in the case of Andy's cross it is the recipients initials.

I have four EK1s with info on the reverse. Two are formally engraved and two are "scratched". Here is one attributable to the fighting at Kalinin in 1941. I posted it once before...
