Fritz Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 However, have noticed one mistake on this otherwise priceless item. When a Reserve Cross was worn on the emblem, there was no "Vaterlandsbandeau" (scroll) accross the front of the eagle, this one has. Something wrong there. Examples of Reserve plates, no scroll: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
