Cholm Shield original?

[Overlord]

Hello Friends! I was really sure that this one is original. But now I´ve seen the Thread about the best Kuban Fake. Are there any very good Cholm Fakes like that? I hope this one stays original after posting here. And what is a realistic Price ? I only found a Price on Weitze Site and i´am asking me if he is crazy.

Shield is good, about the price it depends on how lucky you are and, of course, from the conditions. From 2K to 4K. Short M have an high market value than the long M type.

i can´t believe that someone would pay 3000 or 4000 EUR/USD. But i remember 20 Years ago. At that Time the Price was 500 - 800 DM and you could find a Cholm Shield once in a Year.

Yes - and if You look at all these shields You mentioned TODAY, You will see that 80% are fakes... but You are right concerning the prices today. They were
amazingly rising over the last years.

Kind regards, Peter

Peter is absolutely right. 20 years ago the prices were indeed a lot lower BUT indeed 80% was fake. Nowadays with all the reference material an original Cholm shield is very rare. The prices went indeed insane the last couple of years. Only recently a Cholm shield in good condition (not mint) was sold for 6000 euro.

There are indeed very good fakes but Overlord's shield is a good one.
