6.8.1

Here's my WH destroyer...

Tony

[entasis]

reverse with pin in open position.

these I tend to see with filing on the reverse along the inner portion of the wreath (I believe FO are the same). WH also tend to have (for lack of better word) 'brushstroke' patterns on the reverse finish.

[entasis]

Now that I take a 2nd look at these 'brushstrokes' on the reverse of the WH, they could in fact be remnants of the hand filing as is seen on the inner side of the wreath...just a thought.
