    Another nice pickup Michael. Looks to be great condition too! I like the background you’ve used as well as it’s quite neutral and think it would work for a lot of future photo shoots. Looks like galvanised steel.

    Very good eye Andy. It is galvanised steel. I thought it was good for the EK. Glad you liked the cross. I have another EK2 non combatant on lay a way. But that one is very special...

    Nice find Michael.
    Is the cross marked? It looks like it could be a Meybauer made piece.

    Unfortunately no markings on the ring.

    I agree, nice find Michael.
    Because of the "hump"?

    Have you had a close look at the ribbon? Blacklighted and checked the thread closely? This stuff has been heavily faked.

    It uses the Godet / Meybauer style core. The frame does have the hump which Godet
    does not have and the frame beading is thicker, heavier looking than on Godet crosses.
    The inner corners look like they might match but they are not well defined so I can
    not say for sure.

    Meybauer is my best guess so far.

    Will a better photo of the beading help Greg?

    Yes, the ribbon was looked at under a loop and black light tested. I was careful. The seller was happy to have it checked out. Showed it to my friend and well respected Imperial Awards author and another Imperial awards collector /dealer.
