Id say 40 tops if that, hard to see much here. Not much curb appeal. What's the deal here, Wheat - you normally go for the best.

Bought it years ago for like $30 so it was hard to pass up at that price even if it's not my usual.

NICE WOODY!  Too bad for the light verdigris - but I think it could be saved with careful conservation. Active below the E in CENT. There black stain on the right wheat is a sign of past, light corrosion and someone removed. I would characterize the active corrosion under the E as light. There's also a tiny speck of active in the left wheat stalk. VF-25 - and a good piece of wood!

Quote: On an SVDB the initials are ALWAYS bold and complete. You're most likely right but, I'll post what I'm seeing. The B looks pretty clear and I see maybe some of the V. There doesn't seem to be much of a rim down there so maybe they were exposed to more wear than normal?
