[QUOTE="brg5658, post: 2562917, member: 29751"]There are many pieces engraved by Karl Goetz that I find artistically (and historically) interesting -- but among all of his designs, his many variations of the eagle are, in my opinion, his artistic best. He captures something so elegant about the eagle, and the detail he puts into the feathers, talons, stance, etc. is stunning. An example of the 2 Mark Goetz "unofficial" pattern has long been on my want list. I had this particular example on my watch list on eBay for quite some time, and finally pulled the trigger last week. It arrived this last weekend, and I had a chance to photograph it this evening. Please feel free to post your examples from the extensive set of "patterns" that Goetz produced.
