Hi,

A couple quick items:

1) There are post wartime produced Souval awards marked L/58.

2) OLS we normally associate with 1957 era awards have a "smooth" unfinished reverse to the swords.

I will let others comment, hopefully Alex in regards to Souval production.

Best,

Jeff

Ugly fake for me, with no connection to a 57 RK!!

I agree with Nigel. Ugly fake. Tom

Hi Chris,

I have to agree with everything that was already said. The OLS shown above are not Souval made. The L/58 mark was added to a cheap casted piece.

A very good point made by Jeff is that all early Souval or S&L oaks had a smooth "unfinished" reverse. Later Souval Oaks were stamped in a semi hollow method.
In any way, none of the manufacturers made casted oaks.

Here for comparison is an early set of Souval oaks....






Regards,
Alex
