Thanks Ian, it has indeed suffered a bit.

That is a nice shield. I immediately recognized it. I bought it from Artzi over 10 years ago.

Wow that's a nice surprise. I didn't see that one coming. Did you put it up for auction a few weeks ago?

No, I sold it years ago, The buyer was not someone I knew.
I am not sure if he bought it for his collection of for trade.
