Recently got this matching pair of cut down 40mm with nail ? punch designs
They both depict on the front a lady showing a lot of leg in a long gown.
The rear of both are done in smaller punches and both show a lady in lingerie emptying a box of what could be money over the head of another who is seated reading a book or magazine. Could it be a brothel ?
Sorry for quality of photos but found it difficult trying to photo the detail on shineyish brass..
Thanks for looking
Allan

Nice Pair ! That type of hammered patern is quite often lost with polishing over the years.

Tomorrow will see if ive got some chalk to try and highlight the design to make it more visible..
