This is one that a friend of mine owns. I cannot take it off of the shoulder strap but getting under it and looking at the edges, particularly the bottom, I can clearly see that it is stamped and not cast. The ciphers are attached to shoulder straps and to this tunic.
Thanks for all the info provided in this thread very informative it makes me glad I gave up collecting SS stuff a few years ago-a veritable nightmare. I'll be interested as to the opinion of Peter Whammonds 'vetting' team on his cypher, perhaps Bobwirtz will let us know.
For what its worth My knowledge of LAH cyphers is next to my knowledge of Sanskrit, I have seen the tunic Bob posted and it is a beauty cyphers and all!!
