VH through GH grades used a brass shield held in with two brass nails.
Higher grades used Silver and Gold ovals also held in with nails.
Later Remington era guns were not held in with nails. They were soldered to a wood screw on the back side. So no evidence of fastening is shown on the outside.
When i install these, i glue them in with acraglass and then pin them with the nails and dress them off for an original look.
