[QUOTE="skerry, post: 245169, member: 3144"]Yes very interesting article AJ, thank you. I have been reading up on that article and some others. I can seem to spend hours wandering from one site to another researching, at least it keeps the grey matter on the go. From this article and others I have read, the eagle did indeed cease to be used after 1870 for political reasons so at least that allows me to date my piece to an 18 year period.
