Coastal Artillery by S&L?

[Welsh RS]

Good afternoon gents, could I have your opinions on this one please ? Photos aren't particularly the best but all I have at this moment...

The blurry photos are limiting, but the finish and hardware look suspicious for a fake in the style of Staegemeir. Sharper photos, a view with the pin down and closeups of the hardware would be helpful.

I agree.
The finish is wrong for S&L.

Hello Norm and Hubert.. thanks for your very valued opinions, I am trying to get better more detailed photos of this one. I shall post them up when I get them, hopefully they will help. So far it's a no no...

The detail on the eagle is worse than that seen on originals but that could be the thick gold finish. If this is a real S&L zincer then it's been refinished post-war in the style of Staegemeir which is enough to make me turn away.
