Any opinion

Hi Chahler

Just a fan, far from an expert so do wait for the pros. Personally? the spange you show doesnt give me a warm and fuzzy feeling...No pebbling in the wreath or date box , head detail, poor finish, taterred ribbon and the weird "spot " between the legs (is this a hole pierced through?) would make me wait for a better, more representative specimen to come along on the estand or a dealer site

Regards

JC

If I recall well these are sometimes found with a raised L/14 mark.

I don't like it, but that is personal.

Not a fan.

1. Dont recognise the design.
2. Ageing/wear looks forced.
3. What kind of material is this supposed to be made of that rusts?
4. Swaz is asymmetrical
5. As already mentioned pebling looks odd as well. But could be all the ageing that makes it difficult to see.

Not a piece i would buy.

patina on this one looks really unnatural.
