Krim shield

[calletheodor]

Hello,

After reading and learning from your excellent forum for some time I now send my first post.

What do you think about this Krim-shield (links below)? Its authencity was disputed in another forum. I didn´t find the "evidence" coherent and consulated a very experienced collector of Wehrmacht Militaria who, from an overall impresson, says that it´s good. He is not a Krim-specialist though.

Best regards,

Calle

Hi Calle,

I am sorry but this shield is one of the oldest and worst fake Krim shields around.

Hi,
Just out of curiosity. Is there a original Krim-shield that was model for this fake? When I made my own research before being member here I found numerous fakes slightly different from my shield as can be seen on these pictures but mine was the common denominator. Is this fake so old that it´s been copied?

Best regards

PS. The seller was appaled but I´ll get my money back!
