No opinion about originality?

Your shield appears correct. However, need to know what metal was used.

Most of the reproductions are made from brass, and have excellent details.

The originals I have are made of Aluminum, one in loust condition and the other in near mint condition. I've tried selling the lousy condition shield for over 4 years at a price of $80.00, still has not sold. The near mint condition shield I feel is worth around $200.00, but I doubt that I will be able to get that much money for it.

Hope this help you.

Cheers,
Howard
