Wide A fake Kuban

[Stepdale]

Hello,
Helping a friend of mine evaluate his long time collection of militaria. My assessment is that this Kuban is the wide A fake as shown in Pascal's pinned thread. Just wanted to get the opinions of those more knowledgeable than I.
Thank you,
Dale

You're right Dale. This is indeed not an original shield.
This is the type of shield as shown in the pinned thread.

Thank you for the confirmation and even more, the thread that helped me make that assessment.
