Seem to recall dog tags turned up around late Victorian times. Is that correct? I figure the image is probably from a renown painting as there appears to be a signature in the bottom left area of the image that I can't decipher. Not sure how the image was applied either. It seems to be a silver layer that has been scratched back to base material. Most likely a commercial process of some kind. Base is kind of interesting too with lots of firing support points.</p><p>Any thoughts on it??</p><p>Cheers</p><p>Stephen</p><p>[ATTACH=full]141812[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141813[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141814[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141815[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141816[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141817[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141818[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141819[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
