91-old-inf-reg Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Just received this in the mail today and I'm wondering if I could get some opinions upon its authenticity etc. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtwinVince Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 From these images it looks OK, with most of the gilding intact. Is that a repair to the reverse of the left side sword hilt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the looks of it no, as with the exception of the right swords hilt, the rest of the sword are soldered on to the enamel wreath, not pinned like that of a godet.

Alex K Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 The lower arm is stamped with a W which suggests it was made by Wagner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtwinVince Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Yup, post-1916 silver-gilt version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Hi Nice cross indeed. Like Alex said, W is for Wagner and next to this is the silver hallmark 938. It's not easy to find a good one to this day. Congrats for your purchase. Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
