EK II Issue Packet.
In the days when even the issue packet for the humble West Wall medal is being reproduced, I would like to post this EK II issue packet for opinions. A thread was bought to my attention last night discussing fake EK II packets, and as I may part with mine in the near future I want to make sure it is 100% OK. There is no storey with it, I bought it 2 or 3 years ago and as you can see it is unmarked. Any opinions will be well recieved.
Regards Richard.

Dear Richard,
This is one of the ones where there is some doubt, and all that can be said I think has been said on this one.
I'm not overly keen on them (I have two of this type also), in fact I don't like them....they're too 'iffy' if I was to be blunt and honest, but thats my opinion.
Kind regards,
Marcus

EK II Issue Packet.
Gentlemen, thank you for your time and input regards the EK II issue packet. From what I can gather from this forum, several of this type have "appeared" over the past few months and there does seem to be some suspicion concerning them. Although I am slightly dissapointed with the , I had my own suspisions and the forum has proven its worth (again) by confirming it. Thanks again.
Regards Richard.
