SD Shoulder Boards

[Stossgruppe3]

I have a question ....
This is a un matched pair of SD Boards in rather good condition.
On the back of both there are two distinctive marks ...
One on each board as you can clearly see.
Its NOT where there the tongue has been as I don't think this rank had them ...
But underneath the toxic green material there is a piece of wire.
Its this normal and whats it for ?

Lastly whats your opinions of these boards ?

Thank you Gentlemen
Regards
David

Looks like thread holding the metal stiffener to the card inlay,most straps have the wire stiffener normally though this is on the other side and not visible from the bottom

Nice original boards. I don't think these are faked.
