I am posting these for a friend to find out if they are original, since I have no idea. Any comments would be appreciated.

thanks

Hello,
IMO the runic tab is fake, I don't like the piping, the backing, nor the shape of the runes. As for the rank tab, it's hard to say without a hands on inspection, but it looks like it could be fine...John

I would go with Johns opinion on this one,although Ive seen period runes similar in shape the ones pictured are a bit different and my eye is not as good as his.

I agree with John D. as well. By the way John D., excellent tabs you've got there! I especially like the one still attached to the collar!

[John Pic]

I love that one too,what a great find.

I don´t like them at all. Tell your friend to save his money, Marty.
