EK 1870 1870 EK2 'B-type' with 25 year Jubiläumsspange & Wiederholungsspange

[Danny70]

Hello All,

It is with thanks to a fellow forum member who responded to one of my "Wanted" posts that I am delighted to show off my latest purchase - I've been looking for one of these for quite a while.

It's a 'B-type' 1870 EK2 with 25 year Jubiläumsspange. It also has attached to the ribbon a Wiederholungsspange (1914 Bar), this (the bar) is more than likely a fake, and I purchased it as such. However, it is of fantastic quality so I have kept it on the ribbon as a display piece.

Hope you all like it as much as I do!

Regards - Dan

(Apologies for the bad photos)

Joel,

Thank you again for the kind words.

I am very happy to have added this one to my collection, and have managed to find a 1914 EK2 with a core design based on this B-type. I'm eagerly looking forward to it's arrival.

Regards - Danny
