Hello

Would I be correct in saying it is of one piece conctruction ? If so, I like it. The Schinkles which do not have magnetic cores and appear to be made of brass are generally brass plated over the base metal that they were made from. They would then have the silver plate and paint applied. Apparently the brass produced a surface that the paint and the silver plate would bond to.

Yes, I like it.

while i've not seen this particular style of schinkel before,

i like the needle/hinge, the metal on the reverse, and the

manufacture.

i'd have it in my collection.

very nice.

I like what I see here-this one is a"good" one with a copper plated iron core and the right pin for this variation.Unfortunatelly I wasn't able to upgrade mine-I'm always looking for the better one .But back to this one-for me it's a fine piece and I wouldn't have any problems to add it into my own collection.

the aforementioned thread deserves a look from all.
