That's a scarce one, congrats.
-
That's a nice one, and in good shape.
-
Frohe Weihnachten, ist ja ein toller Weihnachtsbaum was Du da zeigst.

I find the Epstein material particularly interesting, as some of my relatives were deported to Theresienstadt at the same time from Koenigsberg, East Prussia.
-
Holy cow, now there's no point in posting anything else in this thread.
-
Blass is a name which constantly turns up, and not in a good way. I'm stuck with a couple of obscure fakes by him.
-
OK, let me get organised.
-
Based on those images I think that bar stands a good chance.
-
Thanks, but don't get too excited, the PLM is an interwar Meybauer single-sided example, although the ribbon is genuine and pre-1914.
-
Some of the component parts look fake to me, and the bizarre way in which the Elefant has been swapped in.
-
Should be massive silver gilt construction with screwed in swords. Most were produced by Godet. Here is my example, which looks like it was run over by a tank, and I had to replace one sword hilt.

Some nice material here, but I saw that colonial bar and was immediately suspicious.
-
Thanks Claudio, you have to wonder if this was an 'honest mistake'.

Funnily enough, he wasn't entitled to the Eichenlaub for the OZL.
-
Good idea, although we already have a thread listing hundreds of fakes on fleabay.

Thanks for chiming in Lorin, and it is frightening how sophisticated some of these fakes are getting.
-
If that's enamel, it looks pretty weird.
-
I personally would steer well clear of that one.
-
Yup, I had a close look at that one and was almost fooled. The swords didn't look right.
-
True, and my examples have the writing more centred in the lid, and the line spacing is tighter.
-
The fakers are getting much better with the Poellath cases these days, they used to be easy to spot.
-
Who is the seller? You need to be extremely careful with this order, I've seen some incredibly good fakes in recent years.
-
Mr. Schraegstich strikes again.
-
I'm not sure, but I think the total of all awards with the breast star was 34.

Isn't number four the 1866 Cross?
