... all sets I have on file are like the ones Johnnie_Walker shows: end on the right. Even if one turns a loos loop around, the end is again on the right. So jcwater's piece has either a replacement or a 'wrong wired' loop or somebody made a mistake...

But I have to say very clearly: whether a set of oaks or swords is 100% real cannot be determined with pictures on an Internet Forum. One can say - if obvious - that it might be a fake. But not if it is real!

Genuine or not is not determined by the loop - it is determined by the Oaks itself. This I would not dare to do with only pictures - in this case.

I have no opinions on the authenticity of any of these items, but if they are real....

Hi Dietrich, I see no problem with the end of the loop on the left at all as there are more known examples in collections?

Thanks

Did I say anything to the contrary?

Just referring to this statement.

Thanks Kevin

[Dietrich Maerz]

a 'wrong wired' loop ..

The statement about "mistake" refers to something else, though.
