Not everything is as neat and consistent as one might wish it to be, to fit one's views. Knight's Crosses and Oakleaves were also not meant for private sale, but WERE marked for silver content. The markings presented in my earlier posts proves that Gahr was definitely NOT a stickler for "neat and tidy" markings, and didn't always mark their silver items with silver content markings. That has been clearly demonstrated over the years, so lets get past it and continue our discussion of the subject matter . . . the revelation through the photo I posted early on, showing a dagger that was modified for wear.
