    Possibly better chance if you post in the Imperial section instead of the Third Reich forum.

      Hi,

      Reverse finish, hardware and anti-rotation pin indicated TR period production.

      The obverse frame beading is exceptionally worn and the core looks more like Imperial production but with poor detail yet near 100% finish.

      I'd like to see some edge shots of the frame to see if it's been separated and re-joined and also of the inner edge of the beading to see if the core has been refinished.

      Bit of a strange one from the pics so far.

      Regards
      Mike

        Nice cross by B.H. Mayer.
        If the frame beading was good, you would see the long bead on the
        6 o'clock arm that shows up on some of the "26" marked crosses.
        Here is mine to compare against.
