    Well, the second piece of silver has arrived. Lightning doesn't strike the same place twice, right?

    The Tiffany & Co. 925 doesn't look like it's stamped evenly. Is the right end of line a tad higher and closer to the case's edge?

    It might just be the way the light is shining, Shangas?

    SO, the question would remain, how straight is your IMAGE, Shangas???? OR are there any other factors to cause what's being shown.....all I did was crop the top and bottom of your image, AFTER I had Photoshop drop a straight line starting at the "T"......Possible the engraver was having a 'bad' day???? This wasn't the same seller of your other piece, was it?

    No, it wasn't. Completely different seller.

    The fact that it's a card case makes me wonder who'd bother faking one? I'd check the silver content and if that's right odds are it's legit.

    That's my feeling, too. It came with all the relevant 'accouterments', too. Box, bag, pouch, all look like the real thing. I see no reason to believe that this is a fake. Like you say - how many people buy card-cases these days, for people to bother faking them??

    The cufflinks I could understand. But a card-case? What on earth for??

    I think it's genuine. It looks exactly like all the other ones of this exact style, that I've seen online. And obviously, Tiffany's card-cases have changed in style and design over the last few years.

    Ooh that is pretty!! I don't have that kinda money to engrave this case, though.

    The price for the engraving was at least 3-4 times the cost of the money clip.

    @Aquitaine - can you do another version where the line touches the bottom of the T and the bottom of the Y? As it is, the line seems to have the slightest bit of a drop on the right hand side, and might make the engraving seem more out of line than it really is.

    @smallaxe, if I do as you ask, I will NOT be posting a true level line.....the program (Photoshop) "drew" it level above, NOT ME!! The engraving DOES run uphill....not by a whole lot, but it actually DOES! Here is what you asked for, which actually shows the "N" to be raised higher as well as the rest of it still going 'uphill'.......and I drew this line, not the program......but using the tools IN the program!
