    Don't crop the pic too much, let us see the sides of the stone too, and a shot of it wet would be helpful, slurry's a plus....
    my first thought was vintage coticule.
    We have assumed control !

    You shouldn't post pics from an active auction. People will look for it and the price will increase. It would have been better if you asked someone through a pm. It is a coticule for sure and I spotted it a few weeks ago, it didn't sell before because it's probably too thin. 94g with the paddle included, I estimate the size of the stone at 10.5 x 2 cm, pass lol.

    Perhaps not, but a when one uploads a picture in such limited quantity and quality, it is quite obvious that they are not the proprietor, unless they qualify stating, "I just won this at auction" and are awaiting its arrival, anticipating what it may be in the interim.

    Perhaps Yes i see it all the time on here with pictures. You see something your interested in so you ask a question about it,
    if that raise the price of the item well the seller will enjoy that for sure but its been up for weeks now.........
