Hallo haynau

thanks for the quick response would you care to give me an approxamate value / price,

that one would expect to pay for an item like this??

IMHO The Cross itself: 200 to 250 Euro and 100 to 150 Euro for the box (it would be neccessary to see pics from the upper side of the box)

I think all together 300 to 400 euro. that is not the price i would pay, but I'am afraid that is the price the market would pay. maybe even a little bit more.

I would love to know where you can find an 1870 EK2 for 250 euros.

[Josef Rietveld]

Ask Sascha here in the GMIC, he bought his on ebay a couple of months ago for arround 150 euro as far as i remember.

but as is stated i'am no IC-Expert. what is the correct price in your opinion?

haynau

BTW you can pay 770 euro aswell ebay

i would take out a second mortgage to buy all the

1870 EK 2's i could at 250 euros....

love the case, love the cross. the clasp on the case

is typical of the 1870 and post period. the deep

relief on the obverse is just beautiful.

nice combo!

I would consider that cheap. When was the last time you saw a boxed one?

[joe campbell]

this is an EMINENTLY fair price for this.

someone has a nice cross.
