Hi,

The rust and dirt are covering most of the features I would like to see,

but the maker mark on the disc looks like a '51' to me.

That mark and the lack of an anti-spin device would be enough to warn me off this one.

Regards - Danny

Can you remove the disc and see if there is an anti-rotation pin setting low? Also, there is no known maker 51 for screwbacks. Check and see what maker is stamped on the disc, although I have not seen this stamp used by any maker (I have screwbacks by all known makers except L/14). Jim

Don't bother, it's a Latvian fake.

They ty to cover up the landmarks by making it look ground-dug or damaged, but it is what it is: fake.

Apart from that you will not find a mm51 on any ic

Hello there,

Not an original cross. Just a reproduction that has been artificially aged to go along with a BS story behind it.
