Schinkel I class 1939

[Simon's Silva Rerum]

Hi guys! What do you think about this one?

Dear Simon Gornowicz

Most unfortenatly this is a fake, the swastika looks terrible, the core is bubbly and the date looks like it was painted on. Despite this the frame looks good, this would lead me to expect that this is a latvian fake, Schinkle fakes known to be made in Latvia. They crack open an original EK1 1914, remove the original core, place in the empty space a fake core made by the fakers and they close it up again. I regret to say that most likely a fine EK1 1914 has been misused and been disfigured for profit.This is my explanation for the difference in quality of the core and the frame. Since EK's are not my top collecting priority at the moment I would like to ask a collector who focuses on EK's to come in and give his opinion.

Kind regards, Laurentius

Hi unfortunately, I have to agree with Laurentis, a good imperial EK1 ruined by some idiot
