Markus mentioned different types of this order, generally speaking I type is with monogram, II is with year 1883 on the back side and the saint in red robes, and III is also with 1883 on the back but the saint is in green robes.

Based on this classification Sorlini can also be put among producers of the II type.

This is a good opportunity to continue old discussion we had in Rogi's topic:

Look at the following two orders, images of the saint look like Bertrand's but there's monogram on the back side...

Greetings Heradlic,

That's Bertrand's 4th class order. Very nice example if I may add.
