Leo Posted September 13, 2022 Share #1 Posted September 13, 2022 Recently a good friend of mine bought a lot of flags from a long time collector, two of them was Japanese and there was this NVA flag which I really liked the look off. It has tons of character and lots and lots of wear from being carried in the field by the looks of it. everything in my opinion looks to be a period NVA battlefield pick up ? But as it’s not my area of research would members more versed in NVA flags please give their opinions. Thankyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otter42 Posted September 14, 2022 Share #3 Posted September 14, 2022 I like how worn it is. And would hang it on my wall, but I'm definitely no expert. Some of the fakes coming from Vietnam are pretty good. Need Bob Chat's thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivydiv Posted September 15, 2022 Share #4 Posted September 15, 2022 I like the silk flags. Cotton flags are too easy to fake. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlh Posted October 2, 2022 Share #6 Posted October 2, 2022 It's 100% a legit wartime flag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankyou I was almost certain it was, I’ve collected a lot of flags over the years and it’s helped me alot having them in hand and looking over them. You certainly get a sense when holding something like this On 9/14/2022 at 10:26 PM, Otter42 said: I like how worn it is. And would hang it on my wall, but I'm definitely no expert.

Ivydiv Posted October 11, 2022 Share #8 Posted October 11, 2022 I think it is a great Viet Cong flag. The NVA flag would be all red with the yellow star. The VC is red/blue. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
