Hi folks, I acquired this strike of Central Castra on eBay recently. Strangely, the numerals of value seem to have been coloured in with a pencil. Has anyone got another example of Central Castra so I can check validity?

You may be able to remove or reduce the pencil marks with a high quality art eraser.

LAGUNTA · AU 29 03 · TASMANIA - the best example that I have seen. Unfortunately, the vertical pair has been separated but I am sure that
someone with a steadier hand than mine can rejoin them perfectly with a stamp hinge when they take possession of this fine example in the not too distant
future. ;)

Sometimes hard to get a full clear strike this Central Castra Type 1 (Hdg 12# RR+) is a happy recent addition to the collection.
