Sixth Plate

GOLD ON HIS RINGS! The sullen young man had a huge hand that was resting on a table while the operator worked to create a suitable sixth plate dag that was resealed by someone else. All the doubled white spots are underneath the glass and would disappear with new restoration. The mat was also accidentally placed up side down. Those mat scraped on the left and certainly the misalignment across the top in the tarnish might be improved too. The faint scrapes on the bottom (not seen in my scan) would remain. The black dots were faults in the plate. I should probably tell you that inside the leather case that has a tight hinge and a striking blue velvet pad, the attitude of the guy and his fancy bowtie are striking!
