Hi all

Is this a good one though?

I note that the bottom leafs are lacking details, or is this a case of just being worn?

It also seems to have some blobs on the top of the 9, and where the date box meets


The eagle has toes on the left side but not the right side?

I think it's been seriously polished over the years

Ok yes, the Eagle's feathers look good, lots of details there that look good, which is the hardest part for the fakers to copy.

thought I'd update this thread with a nice 1st class spange that D had for sale this morning... if only I had $600+
