I have a few pictures, but I don't have a scanner! Sorry. Maybe somebody can look in Kaplan volume 2.

I'll look up the other places and post them.

There has to be one on the web somewhere, don't you think?

Hi

I haven(t enough skill in English to do so.

But JMD or Ros may make a summary if they think it is worth the translation...

Sorry Alain
Tried, but the kaplan volume and my scanner just won't 'fit' to quite get a scan.

Anyone have any idea what the 'c' stands for in 1c72? [The date on the two of coins]. I suspect Kaplans dating of 1672 is too early, more probably 1772? I have seen a suggestion that the decorative squiggle at the end of the date like an infinity sign is an 8 on its side and the date is 1728, but the same or similar decorative scroll is on other decks, the Conver for example, and I see no reason why an 8 should be aligned differently to the other numbers, so I doubt it.

edited to add, Kenji has also discussed dating in thread here:
