<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 9546901, member: 56"]The question in my mind is: how did it lose the inscription? Generally, the plate of an image to be accompanied by an inscription leaves sufficient room on the plate for the inscription to be added, as you can see on your Louvre re-strike. In this case, you show examples of the image with an inscription and without, but the plate mark on yours, and on the Riksmuseum b, is very close to the bottom edge of the image. This is a devil's-in-the-details situation for which I have no explanation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
