    Tom,

    No, I've been picking up odds and ends now and then whenever the urge strikes me. Once a collector the bug never leaves you.

    Thanks again,
    Robert

      I have seen plenty of these Unknown #14s with rough cutouts, and actually is something I like to see on badges because it is a sure sign of being die-struck & trimmed compared to many cast fakes that have soft edges.

      I also look forward to seeing better pics

      Tom, are you saying die struck badges that have not been trimmed, never get copied?

      For the record, In my previous post I mentioned "clean cutouts", not "soft edges"

      cheers
      Graeme

                          Thanks everyone,

                          I'm overwhelmed that it passed the muster. It's really the nicest GAB I've ever owned.

                              Hi Robert

                              Thanks for posting the weight and dimensions, nothing out of the ordinary with those.

                              It certainly looks nice in the final shot you posted

                              regards
