Very nice Jamie! that eagle is a big thick lump of metal, all 3 very nice. Out of interest how are these eagles attached to the wreath ? I've seen peened over posts are some soldered ? regards Paul
Thanks Paul
They seemed to have used a few methods, I can see from mine that some are simply soldered on, others have the pins on the eagle which are then placed through holes in the wreath and thereafter soldered/heat treated in order to keep them in place.
I have a 2nd pattern officers eagle which simply has had the pins bent on the reverse to keep the birdy in place.
