The blue green on the piece looks like PVC damage from long term crappy
storage,=20
like still in the auction flip it came in years ago. David

Again an interesting piece STILL hovering at this price level - but with
copper=20
generally in the 4-6% range as with OTHER regals of this period what is
good=20
silver and what is not - I never handled a raw piece - never XRF'd a
so-called=20
legitimate piece - own three casts with Ag (50-75%) which are termed
spurious -=20
is this probable Ag debased piece legit based on the amout of copper
leaching?=20
To be continued ... they generally sell now in the $1,000-$1,250 range in=20
typical VF preservation.
=20
