    Its a 2998-61 (birth year) and it took me quite a while to find it.
    Its on a 7912 from 1961, came with a period correct box and brown guarantee booklet.
    I think it is all correct for the year?
    Comments welcome.

    Thanks for all the kind words chaps.
    Any issues that you see?
    Should the lugs be polished on top for example?
