deschler DKiG date

[tom hansen]

There was a recent thread of a 14 rivet deschler examined and questions were raised and examined regarding the wreath with specific attention to the date. Here are a few pics of the deschler date for a DKiG on three different DKiGs shown side by side for comparison.

Here is another comparison

There are some key consistent areas here on the "9" and the "4".

Here is an adjacent consistent flaw .

Note the key areas on the "9" and the "4"

Hi Tom,

the 3 DKiG are all 4 rivets ?

All 3 are identical.

[IVAN]

and here is from my Deschler 4 rivets

[IVAN]

here is from a silver 4 rivets

[IVAN]

here another 4 rivets

[tom hansen]

Thanks Ivan! These all seem to show the consistent shape of the "9" and the "4" that I have pictured as well. These characteristics were not manifest on the 14 rivet piece that was examined in an earlier thread.

[IVAN]

here is a 6 rivets.

It looks a bit different the "1" and "4" top and "9", but maybe is only an effect photo,

[IVAN]

here is a 6 rivets, and it looks like the 4 rivets.....

[tom hansen]

It may be a photo effect of the "4" not truncated in that image. The other photos, in the absence of the close-ups, show the differeces in the "4" and the "9". Could you show some additional images of your six rivet Deschler, Ivan? These are relatively rare pieces and are not often pictured. Is the wreath on the six rivet a litttle thinner than the four rivet in depth perpspective? Mine is definately a thinner wreath. Thanks

[IVAN]

Sorry, they are not mines and no 6 rivets in the hands in this moment......
