Sarge50 Pillar of the Community United States 768 Posts	Posted 11/12/2021 5:55 pm My thoughts were because it's a raised piece not a depression, that it could be a partial Drop letter? It almost the same size and shape as the top of a T? It can't be a hit because the two letters near it aren't missing a leg.almost seemed attached to the R? Report this Post to the Staff
