sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 09/06/2013 10:22 pm I notice some spalling of the surface above the head. That, to me, indicates internal silver crystallization. If that is the case, this piece must be handled with care, because it could possibly fall apart, quite easily. Report this Post to the Staff
