Marchville1918 Posted May 11, 2020 Share #1 Posted May 11, 2020 Can anyone describe or post a picture of the first pattern of 1910 canteen cup. Is there any difference between the first pattern and any other WW1 era cup other than markings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pep Posted May 16, 2020 Share #6 Posted May 16, 2020 A true first pattern has no date and the handle is all coated steel. These are not so easy to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryce1801 Posted October 31, 2023 Share #8 Posted October 31, 2023 Hi all, just recently acquired this first pattern m1910 cup. Pep said the very first style had chromed steel handles like mine. How rare are these ? As I’ve never seen one other than these forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pep Posted November 1, 2023 Share #9 Posted November 1, 2023 Hard to say exactly. They are very uncommon. I had mine for years before I checked with a magnet. I bet many out in the World have them but just never checked. I have only seen 5 or so and that includes the one I own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryce1801 Posted November 1, 2023 Share #10 Posted November 1, 2023 Hi Pep, so I should check it with a magnet and that will tell me? Also it rocks back and forth too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryce1801 Posted November 1, 2023 Share #11 Posted November 1, 2023 Just checked and the magnet did indeed stick to the handle and mounting piece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pep Posted November 6, 2023 Share #12 Posted November 6, 2023 The older Steel used is magnetic. The omega metal used later is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
