General Markers:
intermediate style bipartite-like design, with inverted triangles and v on top and triangle and two rays at base, incisions much thinner than obverse- could be metal?,
decorated on reverse, appears to be a new bipartite plaque, with collar and inverted vs on top, and inverted v and triangle on base, on rev. ‘des. F.V.’, could this be the same engraver as 904, as image outlined, and also in thinner tool, also on http://www.matriznet.dgpc.pt/MatrizNet/Objectos/ObjectosConsultar.aspx?IdReg=129082
