1939 EK1 with its urkunde

[panateo]

Hello,

 

I'm new to the forum and I would like to ask for your opinion about this EK1 with its urkunde. The piece has been picked up from a family in Mannheim from a collector friend of mine so it should be original, but I'm not very knowledgeable about certificates.

 

Thanks!

M

Hi M.

the cross looks absolutely fine to my eyes. Nice piece. 
I’m no expert on urkunde but from the examples I’ve owned I see no problems with that one. 
perhaps if you post it in the signatures forum someone will be able to identify the awarding officer. 
 

nice set.

Thanks Glenn, really appreciated, also for the suggestion about the signatures forum!

Very nice Set.

Only thing is whether the EK! and the Document have not been matched at later stage

The person on the Document is a very low rank and the Ek1 is a rare clam shell variant This variant was usually made by private order at later stage They were not awarded pieces However they are original

 

Nice Set anyway
