Deruelle Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Hello, This nice TWM arrive today. I have looked at the Demir's book and compare with some posted here, it seems to be a very nice original cross. The patina is very old, the pin is small and not too long. So for the moment I don't see red alert Of course I prefer having your opinion on it. Thanks Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

demir Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 The medal looks OK but the pin might have been replaced, usually these types have broader pins. Regards Demir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerd Becker Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) I agree with Demir, the pin seems to be replaced. I focused so much on catch, hinge and obverse detail, that i didn´t even notice the pin. Weitze has one atm with original pin, if you didn´t see that already. best, Gerd Edited May 22, 2016 by Gerd Becker confusing sentece corrected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted May 22, 2016 Author Share Posted May 22, 2016 Thanks, I have a doubt about the pin. It seems to be a wartime replacement. For me the most important is that this cross is an original. Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
