L&M-368; K-788; KM-Y-454; WS-0784. This wholly original looking example provides the opportunity to acquire a problem free representation of this popular minor, a RARE chance given how common problems are on this type. Very minimal wear actually presents on the surfaces, with instances of friction on the high points being few and far between. An ashen gray color saturates the surfaces, and this further adds to the rustic appeal of the piece. A premium example for the grade assigned in the opinion of this cataloger.
Estimate: $4000 - $6000
