Ok, as promised, the 'reveal'............ As I stated earlier, the luster booms on this piece, as well as the strike being superb. The 'chatter' on the face is hardly noticeable (in hand) and flow lines exude throughout. Thanx to all for participating........
The Booker T and the Carver/Washington had the same problem. The strike was not strong enough to remove all the chatter. They are tough to grade.
