Yours seems to be a variety without it. When they are present, they seem (apparently) to be placed between the sigma at lower right, and the trophy. That space is empty on yours. Or am I missing something? Here are some examples with monograms lower right. https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=2200408 https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=6786314 https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=6933137 Edited by Kamnaskires 05/20/2021 08:04 am Report this Post to the Staff
