Egorka Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 I am really lacking knowledge here. Please advise on this small bar. Does all look legit? Wanted to treat myself with my first EK... But without help of the mighty GMIC I don't dare. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul R Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Perfect little bar for me! I love these two spacers the best. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egorka Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 Does such bar imply that the awardee passed away before 1934 when the Hindenburg cross was issued? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Either he passed away or just paid for a new upgraded bar. I have several personal medal bars that I just simply replaced with entire new bars as awards were added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egorka Posted December 27, 2016 Author Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) Wanted to say this is another cousin, but got it today and think it is fake one. I took a chance and blew it. What do you think? Magnetic. 3 peice construction But no seam on the edge. And it is a notch, but visibly, thinner than the cross in the oppening post. The core is not perfectly centered. Some paint on the inner rim indicating at least repainting. Also some weird artefacts on the silver rims... Got from a British eBay. There was no direct claim it was original, returns not accepted. Well life experience is priceless isn't it? Edited December 27, 2016 by Egorka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dansson Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 The medals are authentic as are the bars. The threadstarter bar has an EK2 made by Godet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not the one who sold it to me? Just kidding. Thanks for the comment! Edited January 6, 2017 by Egorka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
