Shoulderboards opinion asked

[PierreN]

I am doubting about these shoulderboards if they are real or fake

Size according to seller is 11,2 cm by 4,2 cm

looking around on the big WWW i only find shoulderboards which back has always the color of the outher side of the front side. This one does not have that... I am wondering if i could conclude that this one is therefore not a real one ?

EDIT : posted before in HEER but i found out that when it has this color combo ( black on the back ) is a SS ( fake or real ) ...



2nd question, is there somewhere a reference website of a collector or some kind of book ?

hello....can't speak to these particular shoulderboards but I have found this book to be somewhat useful but it only covers Heer shoulderboards, the book does provide a lot of examples and does touch on construction and the evolution of different types



this site here has several examples as well as the different types of cyphers...not a lot of examples but good detail
