I know, the needle-system is very like the Julius Bauer-cross, but take a look at the handle comparing to a mmd 43.
Straight line on the marked one and "bubbling" on the unmarked. (see marked area)

Only two awards are known in Gold without Swords, to Karl Otto Sauer and Franz Hahn.
Even here, it is far from certain that they actually physically received the award. More likely they were simply notified that they had been awarded the decoration but never received it before the war ended. (e.g. Hahn's letter notifying him of the award is dated 20 April 1945)
Only two awarded and perhaps only 2-5 pieces made...must be one of the most rarest awards ever...with the Grand cross and Gold/Oaks/Swords/Brilliants...

...ok, thanks!
I guessed it was a silver one.
Nice to see another Zimmermann-piece.

Saw that Weitze got a Rkkvk Zimmermann goldplated...
Sounds that 6000euro is a very "good" price for a goldplated rkkvk!?
Can it be a real rkkvk in gold class or is it a "simple" silver one?
Picture found on Weitzes page:

Usually, but not always the case. Like I say, I haven't examined one of these "in the flesh" so I'm not in a position to make any judgement, but I like to keep an open mind, unlike certain others with an agenda on the thread you posted a link to who can be guaranteed to resort to insults and snide remarks - oops I see he already has.
I get your point!
One big reason should be the that so few are awarded...not so many to exam...

I understand your point but as we don 't know who made this type we don't know whether this is normal. You can find other awards where the two "9"s are not exactly identical, just as with Imperial awards you can find them where the two "1" numerals (eg in "1914" are not identical.
I see...but isn?t odd that it could be so? It differs a lot and I always got this feeling that 3rd reich medals holds high quality and accuracy. Perhaps it?s the picture but the cross don?t look so detailed...comparing to all others. Just some thoughts.

...trying to learn...but look at the digits 9 (cross w/swords). They don?t look the same...A good or bad sign...or it depends on maker?!
