Dear gents,

Can you please take a look at this award and let me know what you think about it?

If it is a reproduction, can anyone post a similar example.

Many thanks,

Kind regards,

Davey

Thanks Joe,

I was looking for this but couldn't locate it.

I have had a look and can't see any glaring obvious tell-tale signs. This is quite a heavyweight award.

Many thanks,

Davey

Davey, I see a couple of things that concern, but we would need sharper straight on images, do not want to make a call from the present images.

Guys hi,

Many thanks for takin' time to view and reply.

To be truthful, I don't know what to make of it. It's a good heavyweight and hook and hinge seem to correct.

Joe, will post a sharper image shortly.

Thanks again guys,

Rgds,

Davey

heavyweight is probably true Davey I think it is a lump of pot metal looks like it smells like it even to ugly to call late war IMO
