Thank you Colin, the chin and jowl do look a bit rounded. Jack.

A non-protruding chin is a good sign! There was a thread on here about the eyeball-issue , but I can't find it. I'll post a link when I do! Colin

An unusual all Gm example without the cutout among the hair but it was considered good when I showed it when first I got it.

Sorry to hijack the thread, however, I have an Artists Rifles (163/164 OCTU) BD set with MC and Italy star, badged to a Captain however looks like the third pip has been added late/post war. I've contacted the regimental museum with no response, how could I find out who it belonged to?

That would be Mars rather than Minerva!

And so it does, pity you didn't post the ref to that post or otherwise elaborate, would've saved me posting. I remembered as far back as post no. 24 which indicates that Minerva may have been a rough old bird. Really. Rough.
