Great pictures Ralph. Thank you very much.
The Deumer gold and Fechler bronze do have similar but different backgrounds.
There are some details that show up as quite different in magnification.
The roundel has a quite flattened font on the Deumer.
I am trying to rig up a photo cube where I can get some detailed background shots without any light reflection on the surface of the enamel and I will be able to show the types of background.
I am currently giving them a simplified terminology like...Pebble, Rice Grain, Blown sand, mud, sand etc so at least I can start working out just how many makers there were.
I added one more maker yesterday, F&R in a bronze so I am up to 71 so far.
All the best
Doug

That's a nice crisp pattern Ralph and the signature looks quite fine so an earlier piece in my opinion.
Thanks for posting that example.
Excellent photography as usual
All the best

Hello Doug
Here is the only cased Gold that I have. Hope this may be of assistance. Made by A. Rettenmaier.

Hi Steve,
I have compared yours with the two Rettenmaiers I have on file and it is a perfect match so it looks as though we can now identify another one just by the background stippling.
Thank you
Doug

Great, thanks Ralph.
without a makers mark I am pretty sure that you would be unable to identify a maker of the minis.
As you know there are quite a considerable number of different sizes of minis out there with a multitude variation of mounts.
I am not seeing any half sized minis in my searching so I am assuming they have all gone in to collections or they weren't very popular for resale at the time?
All the sizes are certainly displayed in a lot of makers period catalogues.
All the best
Doug
