Krim vs Kuban №2

[Zheleznyi]

Pascal and Antonio have an idea of the shields.
I think that all these three shields were made by one manufacturer...

Not an expert on shields but I do like all three of these especially the Kuban tunic removed.

[Pascal H.]

That the Krim shields are from the same manufacturer is quite clear. Same shield with a reworked die, especially the numerals.
I am intrigued why you think the Kuban is also from the same manufacturer.

In three shields, the left lower pin is shifted to the left.

Pins the Crimea and the Kuban in two versions

[Zheleznyi]

In three shields, the left lower pin is shifted to the left.

This is due to the fact that the same clamping plate was used.

[Zheleznyi]

On the shields of the Crimea this displacement was expedient, the places of soldering were buried in the relief of the peninsula.
Under it, and cut out for clamping plates.
For shields of the Kuban offset does not have practical sense, but cutting for pressure plates was used from the shields of the Crimea, so one mustache continued to solder with offset.

Well spotted Vladimnir and another excellent thread. All those years looking at the front and don't give the back much attention. Turns out the back is almost as interesting as the front.

Another two examples of a Krim and a Kuban with the lower left prong at almost the exact same angle.

Vladimir moved the atention from the shields to their back!
Since now on, no one will ever look at the front side, all will watch only at the back plates and prongs!

BTW, indeed another great find. The only problem is that unfortunately both the Krim and the Kuban are from unknown maker! The same, but still unknown...

Unfortunately, this did not bring us closer to the manufacturer.
