| Case Details | Marked "Railway" / Dueber Coin / Anchor in Shield Logo. New Acrylic Crystal. Confidence of this being "Original to Movement" is HIGH. Has the Correct Screw Marks, Matches Era, 'Gilt 'Edge Numerals matching the brightness & colour of the 'Gilt' on the Movement & Case Exterior looks to have similar age wear as Movement. That it is a "Railway" Coin Case w/ a No. Am. "Railway" Movement is suggestive but maybe only Coincidental. Generally, the Case is in Excellent Shape, w/ a Stiff Bow & Lids that all Snap Tight. A New Glass Crystal could be installed for Authenticity's sake but the Acrylic is the correct style & quite clear. |
