Hi Guys,

Thanks FliegerJG1, Rod and Jim for the info.

Well I did some did some weighing and measuring last night as well as going over the PLM with the loupe again.

It weighs 28.41 grams
From top to bottom at the V in the cross it is 34.81mm
From left to right at the V in the cross it is 35.04mm
In looking over it with the loupe there are some things that might be writing, but the PLM is really grimy and I'm reluctant to clean it.

Jim, Your thoughts are pretty much what I was thinking it doesn't have the quality that I would expect from a Jeweler's copy or a re-strike, nor would I expect a receipant to have/wear one with such poor attention to detail in lieu of his presentation copy. I looked at the pictures that Rod suggested, and while some of them are close, none of them look like it especially in regards to the level of detail. The pictures I looked at are all much more detailed.

Is there a defenitive guide to PLM's with lots of details and closeup pictures that anyone is aware of?

I've attached some additional pictures just for kicks and grins.

Cheers,

Gordon
