        I agree, its a decent reproduction and looks to be modeled after the rare egg-wreath Assmann variant. Closer pictures are welcome if possible, would love to see the detail of the wreath, I have never seen this type of fake before. I think the eagle is in mid-blink!

        If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

              Hi Newcollect,

              I agree with the opinions mentioned above. A very poorly/ cheaply made fake. I wouldn't give 5$ for it.

              Regards,
              Mark

                Saw one just like this on Snyders "Treasures." The nerve of some dealers!
