There is a very, very slim chance that these single-line triangles may have been in use for a short period early on but you'll be hard-pressed to find anything definitive on them. I view them as fakes - safer that way.

If you can get it for 10% of the cost of the standard version I would go for it and see what information turns up in the future.

There is one like this shown on page 237 of Angolia's HJ vol 1. The photo description states " An early period type. Triangle depicting a member of the staff of Gebiet "Sachsen". " However, this information may be in error, so don't take it as gospel.
