    EK2 "J" ?


    Recommended Posts

    Hello collectors,

    what do you think about the MM? I think, it is "J". The EK has also "H" in the small ring.

    Thanks maja

    Hi Maja

    The mark looks like a 7 to me and the H mark on the small ring is assumed to be an inspection mark.

    According to the list of makers at the kaiser bunker, J would or might be a Junker made cross.

    There seems to be # 5, 6 or 9 & 8 war era marked crosses that I've seen so far, not to mention the LV numbered series. I have no idea what these numbers refer to or even if they are from a maker. I would like to find out one day the significance but I fear this info is lost in a dusty box somewhere. Makes for a nice mystery though.

    Hello again,

    a german collector also said, it could be a part of "R". It has the typical "Godet" core and the second MM in the small ring. "7" ?? I thought, numbers were used during the time of the "Third Reich"?

    I have a3 and a 7, both appearing to be wartime or early postwar issue.

    I doubt that yours could be a partial R Here are 2 R's, both horizontal and vertical.

    The horizontal, let's call it the lazy R, would have to be turned 180 degrees to match your mark.
