<p>[QUOTE="robp, post: 5226192, member: 96746"]Looking at it, there is a question about its authenticity. Where are the brooch jewels, or are traces visible? The circle where they would normally be is abnormal, but there might be traces of jewels. The shadows and limited size of picture confuse things a bit here. Also is it a full K on the truncation? A facing, unreflected view of the whole edge would be helpful to see exactly what we are looking at.</p><p><br /></p><p>If the weight is right, then a counterfeit makes no sense, but doesn't exclude a later concoction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
