    Is this all you have? What about the rest of the picture? Anyway based on this tiny image I'd say Coticule.

    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.

    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.
