Hi Wunhur,

IMO it's definitely an earlier F&R. I can only assume that F&R used more than 1 die for there IAB production or that the die was touched up at some point.

Anyway a nice silver plated IAB

The eagles on these really are very similar to the F&R PABs are´nt they.
Always made me wonder how they managed to loose the R in "Frank" though.
