Hi Fer,

It's very difficult to be sure as the Minerva head is so distorted, but it would appear that with the absence of the number '2' under the chin that it would be the 1st standard 950/1000.

Thank you Trev.

I have taken better photo of Minerva mark. In which seems to appear number 1. Am I right?.



Could any one tell me if Henin & Cie is still active?.


Thank you in advance.

Fernando.
