Steve campbell Posted May 20, 2007 Author Posted May 20, 2007 Yes these are a joy to collect. Each one has it's own charms. They come directly from an era that is long gone yet you can have a little part of it with each one.
Steve campbell Posted June 30, 2007 Author Posted June 30, 2007 It's been awhile but here's another one. Posted seperatley a few days ago but I'm actually using this post as my own reference thread to keep a track of my EK2's. A Third Reich era produced example marked L/57 on the ring.
Steve campbell Posted August 13, 2007 Author Posted August 13, 2007 A couple of more to add. This one has a hard to read maker mark. It's LV 2 something. If I go by published lists I would say it's LV26. Nice one either way.
Steve campbell Posted August 13, 2007 Author Posted August 13, 2007 Here's an SW marked piece. I bought this as an HW but there is no such maker listed anywhere, so I should have known better. I already have this maker but what can you do?
Steve campbell Posted August 13, 2007 Author Posted August 13, 2007 The rear of SW #2. Thanks for looking.
Steve campbell Posted October 12, 2007 Author Posted October 12, 2007 Just keeping my ongoing archive of Imperial EK2's going. Here's one I picked up as a cased medal. It turned out to be a KAG, which I already have, but a bonus over unmarked I guess. This cross has a nice dark patina.
Steve campbell Posted October 12, 2007 Author Posted October 12, 2007 Here's the rear of my second KAG.
Steve campbell Posted October 12, 2007 Author Posted October 12, 2007 And here's the KAG in it's case.
Richard Gordon Posted October 13, 2007 Posted October 13, 2007 Super collection! What I like most about the 1914 EK2 is that they are still affordable and have so many variations.CheersRich
Steve campbell Posted October 13, 2007 Author Posted October 13, 2007 Thanks. I've managed to pick up a few nice ones along the way. These are still a decent price and many of them are have a great look to them.
gregM Posted October 13, 2007 Posted October 13, 2007 Steve,You have put together a very nice collection. I am still amazed at theone with the frosted rim. Beautifull Cross !
Steve campbell Posted October 13, 2007 Author Posted October 13, 2007 Steve,You have put together a very nice collection. I am still amazed at theone with the frosted rim. Beautifull Cross !You must be talking about the L/57 EK2. That was a great find. One you don't see everyday, even as a maker of 1939 EKs. My EK2 collection is getting decent. It's getting harder to find makers I don't have. There's many out there. I appreciate the comments from fellow collectors.
frontkampfer Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 The rear of the JWS. Booouuuuu !!!Congrats dear Steve, I love it !! All the best,Fkr

Ok, "Tricks me if you can", we are two Eisernes Kreuz Hunting Club member's, I love our collection, a real beauty, isn't it ? Help me for "JWS", les amis ?a sert ? ?a !Amiti?s,Fkr
Steve campbell Posted November 25, 2007 Author Posted November 25, 2007 If I hear of a JWS I'll let you know. In the meantime I will post my latest EK2 aquisition. It's marked KO and is my second one from this maker. I picked it up because it is attached to a single parade mount. It's in good shape.
Steve campbell Posted November 25, 2007 Author Posted November 25, 2007 Here it is in full view mounted.
frontkampfer Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 Thanks for charing my friend !I love your last pic very "nature" with your beautiful carton ! Congrats man !See you soon on MCF.Regards,Fkr
Steve campbell Posted February 12, 2008 Author Posted February 12, 2008 It's been awhile since I've picked up a new marked EK2, but two single parade mounts showed today and both were marked with makers I do not have, which was a pleasant surprise becasue I only bought these because they were parade mounted. Both of these are nice examples. he first is marked IW.
