<p>[QUOTE="stevereecy, post: 856492, member: 19884"]Yours is most like the second picture, assuming that the "D" was put on by a die. I say that because the bottom edge of the top line (serrif) of your D almost lines up with the bottom of the olive sprig, but is a touch lower. That elimates two right there. And of the two remaining, the D is definitely closer to the olive sprig than the other version where it is far away.</p><p> </p><p>Further, if you look at the middle horizontal section/line of the "E", you can see that die 3 and 4 are kind of pointy in the corners of that line. Then when you compare the ratio of the length of the top line of the E with the middle line of the E, you can see that the top line is much longer in comparison to the middle line on both Die 2 and yours. And, the pocket made between the upper and lower horizontal lines on the E is rounded like yours in Die 2. So yours is definitely Die 2. Unless a fake was made to look like Die #2, I'd say yours is genuine from these two pieces of info.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
