Repro. or Authentic

Brew,
It is one of my pieces; I have a few interesting Navies that I have gathered along the way, also an interesting other piece or two. I like guns (Navies included) that have some historic significence.

Today, I spent most of the morning examining a 1914 pattern navy, (1917) date, that purportedly was taken from the house of Grossadmiral Raeder. Interesting piece, but the provenance is light,IMHO, for what I suspect the owner wishes for it.

I would share more photos with the group except I have very little time, poor equipment and am sadly lacking in the skills required to do pix well.
