"poor etching?"

Yes, notice that the ends of the fleur de lys ends are diferent on one side than the other. Also, there is a piece missing just below the 55. The fuzzy edges of the etch are not straight along the sides of the blade as if the template slipped. Not what I would expect of a period etch from Herder.
