V.H.L.C. Jalisco Guadalajara Eagle Error?

Post by Traintime »

Three photos of belt buckle by this unidentified Mexico maker who has been associated with an Eagle 50 mark. I'll try to get a close-up of the eagle louped kater, but from what I see by twisting this may actually be an Eagle 51. Less detailed than a typical type 1 Eagle, but slightly more than a type 2 (shadow or silhouette) the numbers are appearing set in two box-like areas with a common center ridge. It makes the right side look like a zero until you examine at 10x power...then the number one becomes distinct. This might explain why two different workers at Plata De Jalisco have both been linked to Eagle 50...a possible simple mistaken identity?
