Krim shield, repro or original?

[spooky82]

Hi

I saw this shield on a militaria store. Anyone could tell me if this shield is real or a repro?

Thank you in advance

Spooky82,

The best way to tp determine which of these shields will be real or not is to look at the back. Also a better picture of the front, and of the back, would help. I doubt if anyone will comment pn originality from the picture shown.

Regards,

Gordon

spooky82,

Like most people I am reluctant to say good or bad from a picture. Especially ones taken on an angle like this. If you took the pictures this way that is one thing but if the vendor took them this way that is not a good sign. If you haven't already bought this piece my advice would be to wait for one that is complete with the backing cloth and the backing plate. I haven't seen one of these without the complete back arrangement so hesitate to say these prongs are not correct but I doubt it.

Regards,

Gordon
