I have a 1962 50 centimes in xf that I think has the 4 folds in the collar. Can anyone show a picture of both the three folds and the four folds? Thanks for any info.

3 folds, 4 folds.

I'm learning, I didn't know about folds. Gotta research...

I've run up against this before, and was just as baffled.

I'll bet Tbirde56 knows. Brad, where are you?

I'm not home right now but I may be able to come up with something in a little while if some of the other knowlegeable members don't beat me to it first.

Lord M was baffled?? Wow! I guess I came up with a good question. Any body knows please let the rest of us know. Thanks

Post the pic of your suspected '4 folds' here and I'll post a pic of a '3 folds'.
I haven't run across a 4 folds picture yet.

not a very good picture--i am still in cheap scanner mode and haven't gotten to expensive camera mode. Probably can't tell from this scan.

Hard to see.
I believe the 'folds' are to the right of the button.

Krause says "three or four folds in the collar". The collar appears to be separate from the rest of the cloth. My has three folds at the button and three at the collar.
