I bought 10+ pcs of 3846pb31 Minifigure, Shield Triangular with Black and Silver
Falcon Pattern from 2 different sellers. Seller1 has LEGO markings at the back
of all his shields, while Seller2's shields have none.

I checked it and it came from 1 set only. Question is, why some have LEGO markings
while others have none? Are those legit LEGO?

I checked the shields from my own set and they don't have markings on them.
I guess they started using a new mold with markings for shields that were included
in later production runs.

I see, thanks for verifying. I also checked it side by side and I did not see
any red flag for the no marking shield.
