Congrats Detlef,

Nice shield. Sometimes these old damages bring character to, in this case, the peurise.
I have several objects with clear 'war' damages. Most of these were pick-ups from the battlefield, or convescated, and taken home by Dutch east Indië marechaussees...

Thank you Maurice! And yes, I agree, many times old damages bring character to items. In this case for sure!

Best regards,
