Thanks Mark!
It is not too much of a stretch for me to "trace" the written references of "brass discs rarely encountered" to this single stock which came from a now confirmed dubious source.

Pretty much an "ah-ha!" moment to me. JMHO of course.

There was a lot of luger skull-duggery in the '60's and 70's for sure; continuing to the present day. We should all keep in mind that that time is now 40-50 years in the past, add some intentional initial "ageing" and you have "real" patina.
