This charming and nicely preserved example with smooth high points and rough open fields displays attractive rich brassy patina with richer coloration in the open areas and minor earthen deposits amongst the devices adding much originality.

Quite the pleasing piece of this large-size issue with a good look certain to be a welcome addition to the next collection it enters.
