Think this is a wrong un, because of the missing dot after the letter O and shape of slider. But i have spent so long trying to work out if its good or bad started to doubt what i was looking at. So if the forum could confirm if its duff i can discard it.
Many Thanks
Chris.

The voided copy is based on an original pre 1915 design but that is rare and had a strengthener. All the other genuine patterns did not have the void.
