KR Alex Hi Alex, not sure if there’s a Scharffenburg mark but this mark is on the suspension ring, hopefully I can make sense of it when it gets here next week.

Stogieman Posted September 5, 2023 Author Share Posted September 5, 2023 No S punch on the bottom arm, just the silber punch in the suspension ring. Maybe Roessner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted September 16, 2023 Author Share Posted September 16, 2023 Does anyone know where I could find an Osang case? I’ve handled plenty of Scharffenburg cases over the years but I don’t remember ever having one that had an Osang label on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Never seen in private collection. For the moment. I have seen a Roesner once, that's all.I am looking for a nice Roesner knight cross with its case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted September 17, 2023 Author Share Posted September 17, 2023 Hi Christophe! I hope you find one! These have become incredibly scarce and I’m surprised at the values, my first one was a cased Scharffenburg and I bought it from Detlev for $800 usd. I agonized for weeks over it but it was just too special to pass up. I’ve surfed the web for awhile now and the only one who seems to have had a steady supply is eMedals but many of the pieces Barry has sold are not ones I’d want in my collection. I’m visiting a fellow collector in October, he has a gold ca. 1870 RK that I’m hoping to see again. It’s so beautiful and different with the fixed crown. Looking forward to that trip! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
