well
after careful study
these are now stretching out into something more like
1850de2bahowu1945
or maybe bahowu should be called baprwu
since hohenzollern was actually a part of prussia
& the historical atlases i have checked show only 2 rather than 3
such tripoints
oops
a discrepancy i cant yet account for
& their contemporary location is actually in de2bw2tu3si
since the regierungsbesirk or district turns out to be tubingen
rather than stuttgard
& the kreis or county is sigmaringen
but the gemeinde or municipalities if any are still unconfirmed &
unknown
& thus may or may not still warrant the additional qualifier 4xxyyzz
if indeed these tristate ghosts survive today as municipal tripoints
which is the most difficult detail to verify
