    1813 EK1


    Recommended Posts

    That's interesting. An open-back 1813 EKI with Osen is the Holy Grail to most Imperial Cross collectors. The occasional example has surfaced in recent years - a little too often in my cynical opinion and they attract serious money, the last I recall being about three years ago for well over EU 10K. Was this being offered as the 'real deal' or a space saver? It's not the worst I've seen by a long shot. It looks well executed and with medal in hand I could well have been tempted. Thanks for sharing your images.

    That’s a lot of 1813 crosses to hit the market all at once!!

    That could ring alarm bell I might be wrong, however when few rare EKs hit the market at the same time I am always on guard We will see if more come for sale by other Dealers or Auction Houses

    Yup, alarm bells ringing here for sure. Too many supposedly rare crosses all hitting the market at the same time is Brothers Grimm territory for me. One has even conveniently lost part of its frame so we are left in no doubt whatsoever that it has a stepped core. Really?
