Guys,
Here's a #4 with a fairly high serial number of 75. Looks worn. Alexei |

Ron,
Looks like 194. Have you thought about trying to carefully remove some of the solder? Alexei |

A freind of mine has a microscope so I was going to use that first to get a real good close look. I am a little afraid to start scraping away soldier, I don't want to damage it. If I was to remove some soldier, any suggestions as to how to do that?

Here's some eye candy - 3rd RB with s/n 5.
Ron, IMHO a microscope wouldn't help because even the lowest 100x magnification would be too much. I would suggest a numismatic loupe with 10x-30x. I would probably take it to a jeweler to have the solder removed. Alexei Quote:

Here's an interesting early piece without the "O" or other marks on the back. Serial number is 88.

Here's an interesting variation - there is a faint "B" partially covered by the usual "O".
