Would love the thoughts of members on these 2 wappen. I have had the screwback wappen for many years, the one with loops just got. Missing one of the square nuts on the loop model.

I think they are both good, but value the input of others.

They look ok to me despite the little variations. The latter is something that keeps surprising me with German imperial items. Although there were often quite detailed regulations, there are a lot of variations on e.g. wappens, haubes, covers etc.

There was once a great deal of disagreement about this. While now it is generally accepted as manufacturers differences there was once a very loud and harsh judgment that it all had to do with Probe tags. The general concept was that the tags provided an absolute copy standard that nobody could vary from. There was and still is a general misunderstanding of the Probe system.
