Serial Number 2462797 was reported as inaccurate.
Note: The database says this movement is a grade 65-E,
Model 6, Lever set and 3/4 plate, 16 Size. This
cannot be correct as Illinois did not make a 16
size 3/4 plate lever set movement. The Illinois 16
size movement in 3/4 plate and lever set open face
would be a model 9. My Illinois grade 65 with the
correct serial number and all of the correct
markings on the movement is an 18 size grade 65
model 6 full plate movement. I have left pictures
for examination. Any comments would be
appreciated.
Thank you Al

Curator Response: Thanks for the report. This was a transcription error and should have been reflected as 18s in the database. Thanks for uploading the images for verification.
