Hello All

Call me a cynic but while the belt plate shown at the link might look very nice (and expensive) I have my doubts over the authenticity of the bottom scroll bearing in mind that a certain someone was asking to borrow one of these bottom scrolls about a year or so ago so that they could make a mould/casting for a belt plate they had with a missing bottom scroll. Plus while the scroll does look reasonable it is not exactly the same as the ones that I have in reference pictures. Just my humble opinion in case anyone was thinking of putting in an offer.

Just found the post asking for the scroll
