      It's funny, the more crosses I pick up, the longer my want list seems to get. (and the harder they are to find)

      "Vaulted" and "incursed"

      One of the more hard to find attachments----

      Nice!! I'm still looking to add a pin back to my collection. I really like the little safety catch.

      Nice cross Micha, For a long time, I think I had one of the rarest AWS vaiations posted on the forums. I believe you've just topped me. Nicely done.

      Cool piece Peter. This is only the second one of these are have ever seen and it's definitely on my must have list.

      The core design of your cross is the same as one of the variations used by the company "Sy-Wagner" and also by "Wagner and Sohn". It may also be used by others but this will give you a place to start your search.

      My own opinion is that these were private purchase vanity items and that we can not just assume that an Ek device is a second class because it is two sided. Ribbon bars do not have any Ek1 device. Why would we expect a frackchain or button hole group to unless the owner did as the one posted above and had a single sided Ek put on it.

      If you were to so us a nice straight on close up of the front of the cross, someone might be able to identify the maker for you.

      Not yet but one is being written as we speak.

      There can be a lot of difference in ww1 crosses. An early cross with a silver frame and cast iron core will weigh more than one with a stamped thin sheet metal core or one with a thinner or non-silver frame.

      I'm not a big fan of TR Eks but I have always liked seeing that brass swazie. It kind of dresses up the cross if you know what I mean.
    19. gregM
      Very nice. I am still looking for one of these for myself.
    20. gregM
      FANTASTIC. Thanks for posting these.

      I'm with Joe. While I concentrate mainly on ww1 screwbacks, I have minis, paper weights, collector cards, plaques, minis, toys. A bit of everything.

      While I don't collect bars, I have seen my share of them. For me the award that is a non-starter is the Bavarian Ludwig cross. Bavaria had some Beautiful awards for it's combatants and officers, the Ludwig cross for service on the home from is just plain ugly.

      Chris---I would never resort to bribes. Mervyn, The Swiss bayo is on it's way as promised. :-)
    24. gregM
      Here is a picture of the Swiss next to my butcher blade. I bought the Swiss bayo from our local surplus store back in 1969 when I was 13 years old. I think I paid $8 for it.

      I have the typical Butcher blade sawback and also the Swiss version which is considerably longer.
