Here is one to try you skills on. I have included two views as it is a little hard to make out.

One from the vaults.

I still haven't identified the maker's mark (FVP, in a lozenge, with a hedgehog or porcupine), but the head with "R.J" below is a city mark used in 19th century Rio de Janeiro.

Speedy as ever . . .

Thanks Blakstone for raiding the vaults. And it's good to see LABARBEDOR in print again, even if it's an old post.
