The GMVK looks like a cast copy to me, in any event, it shouldn’t be on this bar. 

[Mike Huxley]

I agree. the first should be an EK2 the GMVK cast copy has been replaced to try and add to the value

[Stogieman]

Sorry, can’t read on that forum

[Bernd_W]

Cant judge this one. But a TWM with wreath seems to be period and no fantasy piece. Its in Demirs (Mod @ GMIC) book.
