Gordon Williamson Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Its a "mid-period" piece, or to put in another way, an early example of the later style. Far superior to the crud they turned out towards the end, but not quite as nice as the real early stuff from the old tooling. The loop is almost certainly not original to the cross. That type of look which is doubled at both ends and with incuse relief silver mark is exactly the type used by Souval on postwar fakes, but the RK is a good Steinhauer 57.
