EK 1914 Strange #9 on date of EKI and EKII

[Ulan]

Hello Gents,

today I came across 2 items offered at ebay depicting a EKI and EKII with a strange (at least to me) looking 9 of the 1914 mark.

Or is it due to a reflection of the photo?. Are these originals or someones "special" order somewhere after 1918?

Regards

Hi Ulan,

Imo you have simply noticed variations due to different manufacturers.

Both examples appear to be originals to me, although the (probably wartime) CD800 has some problems with it's frames (probably separated and repaired). The EK2 appears to be an exceptionally nice example.

Regards

Mike
