Luftwaffe Marksman Shooting Lanyard: Prong Question

[Von Ritt]

Looking to add to my lanyard collection. This would be my first Luftwaffe version.

Found an Ade thread mentioning several makers of the shields. What caught my eye is the style prong. From what I can find, the prongs most shown on the web are of a yellow brass color and are rounded. This lanyard is definitely messed with. Looking at the prong style, they are flat w/ angle cuts. Other inspected areas appear original. Chime in with observations please. Any concerns about authenticity are welcomed. Always appreciative for the helpful words shared. Thank you.

Cheers,

I haven't seen this type of eagle before, it resembles a Deumer but it's not a 100% match. Plus even if it was, the prongs do not resemble a Deumer. But then agian as the war progressed maybe other styles were used, i don't know.

Here is an original Deumer for comparison.


I'm not 100% sure about this piece so it's better to wait for the others to chime in but i'm not to fond of it.

Just my observations

Regards, Tobias!

At the very least, the badge was added after the wool patch was sewn on.

Here is one I have, but the cloth backing covers its prongs...
