Opinion on Kuban Shield

[Husker402]

I've read and examined the various photos in the threads regarding these shields and have been able to identify a few fakes thanks to this forum. I am looking for opinions on this shield I am very close to purchasing. I believe it's original but wanted to get a few more opinions. If it's not, can you pointing out the "tells" for me?

Your time is appreciated!

It's a nice original example.
I hope you realise it has got a dent in it.

Thanks Pascal for your opinion. Yes, I realize it has a small "dent" on the shield. The backing is the same as a good Krim shield in my collection. Again, I appreciate your comment!
