Hi, well as said, the images are to poor to give a proper answer, I will say though that the runes do look like they have the "inner border lines" running around them that are on these type of Pocher decals. Leon.

Hi Leon
That’s made it a bit more confusing... the decal does look like it has the Pocher inner lines

There are a couple of Euro fakes that have that feature. That's why it is crucial to get good images, so as to study up close. Also....as we know, there are many Pocher decals, both runic & Nat. colors that are seen in unapplied form, which could mean possibly a post war upgrade. There are those with the "talent" to apply them to make them convincing to the naked eye.

Why one must insist on provenance as I stated, as far as "line, or chain of ownership" the last few decades.
