Chris Boonzaier Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Has anyone seen one to beat this ? core is 2 thin metal staped sheets... when you tap if with a fingernail its sounds like you are banging empty tin cans together... this has to be the ugliest out there.... I dont mean a once nice cross in bad condition... this was ugly the day it was produced....
IrishGunner Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 With a topic opening like... "Ugly and cheap...." I thought this was going to be your biography.
dond Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 What do you expect from a TR era produced cross?
Streptile Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 I agree. Also came with swastika core in a Schinkel version.
Chris Boonzaier Posted February 11, 2013 Author Posted February 11, 2013 Here is another ugly one, probably 1930s?
dond Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 That core looks like a cast core. That would conceivably make it an early one, like wartime.
Chris Boonzaier Posted February 12, 2013 Author Posted February 12, 2013 It is indeed a cast one, terrible details, and a frame so thin you can cut yourself on it. The frame stamping is pretty terrible as well. No stamp on the ring... I would be curious if anyone has a terrible one WITH a stamped ring?
erickn Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Ugly and cheap...sure, one-piece copper and raise you another Ugly w/ scratched inscription "20.III.17"
