    Help with Lappland shield

    Hello.

    Due to my lack of experience I need an advice on this shield. Is this genuine or fake, I dont think that any documents come with it.

    Thanks
    Siggi

    I have a problem inserting the pic but this is a link too it.

      This is the one style of Lappland which we know wasn't produced in the camps. I hesitate to call these fake as there are no genuine official manufactured shields, only post-may 45 homemade pieces and i don't believe this type was produced with the intention of deceiving collectors

        Hi Simon....but isn't it this type that's always being peddled by the likes of Gunbroker etc.

          Yep, it can be found all over the place either being sold as 'genuine', repro or post-war '57.
