early Cut-Out IAB in silver

[schwelch]

Hi guys,

I would like to show you my new early Cut-Out IAB in silver attributed to Paul Meybauer. In my opinion it's a very nice addition to the other members of it's family.

Thanks to Kevin for selling me this rare bird!

I hope you like it as much as I do and opinions are welcome!

Best regards
Sven

Hi Tom,

please show us the saw marks from the "hand" cutting.

Hallo Andreas,

Sven has the badge, so he can probably take some better closeups of the area to show some of the hand-saw marks. But even just on his obverse shot, you can see a small little saw mark at the red arrow (maybe Sven can confirm this for us).

Hi Tom,

if you look closely at the rim (especially at the swaz) area it speaks imo against a saw. I tend to say that most parts were cut out by the die itself and perhaps finished by hand.

Thanks Sven ... to bad the pictures show all and nothing If everything would be cut out by hand i would await something like the attached picture. I still think we have here traces of a handfinish was allready was cut out in most parts by the die.
