Please post a straight on shot. From these pictures, It is hard for me to determine good or not.
Also, a shot focusing on the head of the eagle would be helpful as well.

I purchased it, so hopefully it will arrive later this week and I will be able to provide some better photos.

Pat

Here are some more pictures. Any suggestion on addressing the rust on the back so it doesn't keep spreading ? I was thinking just oil and cotton rag.

Thanks
Pat

Like Christoper, I would like better pics. The head does not look quite right from the photos presented.

I like it but before committing I'd want to see clear head on/hi-res scans of the shield not these angled pics.

Hi Pat,
No need to worry. What you have here is a nice original so called long "M" Cholm shield.
