IAB in bronze

[andrei1774]

Hi,
this is my recent find , looks like JB&Co for me. Great bronze coating.....
but my concerns is how the bronze coating survive from those damage to the zinc, what can cause this damage (zinc pest?), very light (the wait is only 19 gr.) and no characteristic JB&Co little dots on leafs.
May be it's unmarked MK design? But they are much heavy..
What you guys think about this piece?
Thanks in advance,
Andrei

Twins

Wow Graeme, they could be twins. They both have the same upper barrel ring near bayo. Nice IAB Andrei, I really like the Plump Finely Detailed Acorns on this one my Friend.

Thanks Pete,
they are not twins , it's the same badge. I have different tactic, buy it and then discuss, rather discuss and then buy it.
