[QUOTE="doppeltaler, post: 2658677, member: 73593"]I have been fascinated with the reverse design of the Romanian 5 L. I had 2 of them with worn out reverse in the past that I sold recently.

What do you think about the hair lines? To me it doesn't look like cleaned with usual parallel hairlines. Perhaps it is dipped ? Although I see little scratches on fields.
