maridvnvm Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2100 Posts	Posted 02/14/2012 3:07 pm If you look for examples of Sydenham 723 you will see different numbers of legs depicted based on what the engraver could fit in. They are all attributed as the same coin type ans share the same reference. Regards, Martin Report this Post to the Staff
