Can you Mike please show us closeup from the middle section of the model 1917 Eierhandgranate?

There has been few examples of this grenade type recently which had shrapnel rim grinded off to make it look more rare rimless version.

[oberjaeger]

ohoh...jussi....maybe you are right....with a second view i see some scratches in the middle...not a good sign

[evilmike]

yes definitely signs of scratching, something i brought up when i purchased them and the seller is happy to have it back if a reworked egg. How are these made, cast in 2 sections so would there be some mark anyway, the marks didnt completely match up on a later egg, anyone have any close ups of an original?

[planista]

The carrier appears to be a copy....
