Prussia Mint Mark on Verdienstkreuz für Kriegshilfe

[jshorter]

Hello everyone,

I have a Prussian Verdienstkreuz für Kriegshilfe that has a capital "F" mint mark on the reverse, right under the hole for the ring mount. I was wondering if anyone was familiar with this maker's mark? I haven't been able to find anything on it as of yet.

Thank you,

Jason

I have read where there is a capital "P" on them sometimes (no explanation for what that makers mark is for either), but no information found on a capital "F". Anyone?

Thank you,

Jason

Dear Jason,

I cannot tell you about the maker mark but I once had one marked "F".

Do you have a photo of yours?

Best wishes

Matt

I'll take a photo shortly and post it in a few moments.

Best regards,

Mine in zink is marked with a "P"

I double checked mine, and it is definitely an "F", and not a "P". Here are the photos...

This maker made EK2s as well.
