It's a perfectly nice Brekke 12 (and Brekke doesn't have all the die varieties by the way). You can see parts of the Elizabeth 2K undercoin if you look carefully. Nice to see! I have images of 66 different Brekke 12s and there are different dies. But, always good to be careful Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEVE MOULDING Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Wow ... beautiful! Now, how does one pronounce "Drwsycoed" anyway? ("drowsy co-ed"?? ) It's Drizzy-Coed, but now I'm never going to be able to think of it any other way, thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
