Hi Mike
very, very interesting. Just to hopefully add to the data base, I measured both today, and while it won't be 100% accurate, it is certainly close. As expected, the 9 ball crown is smaller, but only by a small amount. It's a good question as to the plain ones - were there 2 dies? But were there enough made to justify 2 dies? Maybe one broke and they had to make another? so, anyone with a plain version - post it here! The more we see, hopefully the clearer it will get. I'll put a pic up of the maker mark as well.
cheers, Tim
