    That Kreta CT looks familiar. Did you purchase that from Detlev earlier this year?

    Hi Erich.

    Yes I did, getting back to work early from lunch paid off that day.

      Kreta

      Very nice cufftitles! Here is my small Kreta display and cufftitle. It is still sewn together in the back. Below it is a unit coin of sorts to commemorate the battle; anyone else have something like this?

          John, yes, I do. I have a smaller version of that coin. George P. had both in his collection, I believe, and I took the smaller one when he sold his Kreta artifacts. The smaller one was less dramatic than yours in size, but was of a higher quality alloy which may contain some German silver. These have been recently reproduced, but the materials in the reproductions is nothing like either of the two original examples. George said he had never seen any other original examples of either size, and in 25 years, I haven't either.
