Somewhat cheaper than spending 20K on one of the 4 silver examples known, one without signature on the truncation and 3 with. This will have been made before the die was hardened. There appears to be a trace of an inked 88 on its side just in from the dark patch at 4 o'clock on the blank side.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1507359[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
