EK 1914 Double Marked EK2

[Steve campbell]

[attachmentid=56844][attachmentid=56845]This EK has 2 different marks on the loop attached to the cross itself. I can't read them but I was wondering if anyone could tell the maker my looking at the cross itself. One mark appears to be some sort of design the other is 3 letters or maybe a silver mark.

Hi Steve,

Any chance of some closer shots of the cross, and maybe of the makers mark? It has a mark on the big ring, and the jump ring?

Kind Regards,

Steve

Unfortunatley thats the best i can do right now. I don't have a digital camera and the marks are too hard to read even with a 15x jewllers loup. The marks are both on the small ring that is attached to the cross. One appears to be a makers design of some sort and the other may be 3 letters or numbers. Sorry about the scans.

steve-

double marked EK 2's are uncommon, but not rare.

the number 3, among others, is one i've seen.

my thought is that there is a maker mark and an inspectors

mark, although i have seen double marks with different letters.

hope this helps! you've got a lovely cross there.

Thanks, It's a beautiful cross. It came with an EK2 Spange on the ribbon, a really nice setup. I'll figure it out yet.
