Provenance: R. Stucker Collection, Bourgey Auction (Paris), 21 November 1977, lot 66 (part); bt Spink.
The Stucker cataloguer stated that this is tin, which may be correct, but the likelihood is that it is silver-plated. It is not clear exactly how or when the piece was made but it is very clean, has flat letter bases, and presumably was struck in a collar, although there are no obvious witness lines
