RockyRock Valued Member United Kingdom 129 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 1:06 pm Here are some better pictures. I do believe it is EF but not sure if it's cleaned though. Just a bit concerned on the uneven marks on the reverse. The hairlines in the obverse may not be from cleaning is what I feel... Thanks for all your valuable inputs. I am loving this forum.
