The shield is IMO an original Friedrich Orth that someone has tampered with, cutting some parts between the eagle's head and the wings, or it was made with an early die. The side tabs too are unusual for this shield.
Maybe there's also the mm on the back side, a close up would be of help.
Here's the pictures of the shield.Attached FilesLast edited by Antonio Scapini; 09-19-2013, 01:20 PM.

there are only two bands below on the wreath,and three correct

this shiel not magnetic,original F.Orth magnetic
coastal linie elongated not clear stamp
incorrect side tabs mesurment
About the coastal lines not all the shields are perfects, so this cannot be in this case a proof.
There's rust on the Krim area of the shield, so it could be magnetic.

IMO opinion the shield is an original FO shield.
There are well known original known, late war, with side tabs but without the FO makers mark. Probably caused by a worn die as I have examples with the side tabs on which you hardly could see the makers mark.
Coming back this shield, the shield shows characteristics which I have only seen on original shields and which I have never seen before on fakes. Also the square (cut off) tab I have seen before on an original shield.
However what I never have seen before (fake or original) is the open area between the eagles head and his wing.

Thanks Pascal, I was not mistaken seeing in this one all the characteristics of the original Orth shields.
It is the first time for me too I see the cut out parts between the head and the wings. Couldn't it have been done by hands?
