so much conflict. can you elaborate?

>>33712833
Maybe.

hold a magnet up to it. if it sticks, it's iron. if not, it's a fake.

>>33712833
If you have to ask, the answer is an emphatic "NO"

Also, only faggots care about nazi shit. Stop being gay.

I'm thinking no.

From what I can tell, it looks real to me. The quality in the beading looks good. Would need better photos to tell for sure; too dark and blurry.

let me add, if you're not going to take better photos, here are some ways you might can tell yourself.

A real one is made from two separate pieces. So turn the cross on it's side and look and see if there is a very slight weld on the edges all the way around.
Sometimes the magnet trick doesn't work, so that's not always reliable.
Look at the beading carefully, is it perfectly proportioned or is it all over the place? The hardest thing to fake is the beading (the little bumps all around the edges).
Look at the Swastika and numbers, and the crisp and clean on the edges, or does it look like it's cast?

Are these legit iron crosses?

Furthermore, the black in the middle should have a little bit of play on a real one. If you can wiggle it just a bit, it's likely authentic.

You could only be awarded an Iron Cross by fighting at the front and performing some brave action.

I'd rate an Iron Cross 2nd class like our ARCOM with V device.

They weren't handed out "like chocolate" but a lot of people got them because there was a lot of fighting on the front.

Tripfags, ladies and gents.

People here have Iron Crosses on their VW beetles just cause they look cool.

I'd say you can get away with it.

>>33712833
OP listen to this guy >>33714212

I have 3 Iron Crosses and in my experience and research there are 3 things to look for.

1. Magnetic core
2. 3 Piece design, front, back and center. Try looking for the seem around the edge and make sure it goes all the way around and that you can fit a piece of paper between the center and the frame.
3. Silver Frame with consistent beading that does not look cast.

You have to be careful because the eastern euro fags are getting better at making high quality copies. The seam along the edge cannot be copied, so look for that first thing.
