Default What Am I???!!!

Hello everyone,

I was trying to think of the best way to introduce this piece that I got a few weeks ago. I think the creative gene by-passed me and hit my son instead. My wife has the brains so needless to say, stupid me is left with the following. Naturally, this is a DKiG but what you guys have to do is figure out what kind of DKiG. The weight is 51.9g. I will provide pictures over a certain time period to see what kind of responses you all have.

I hope you all have fun with this.

Regards
Rudy

Ah, a new funny game

Well, enamel red ring, light version, very dark black starburst and the wreath looks like the Godet ones....

I´d say it´s a Deschler one

Great answers guys but do you have all the answers. Next picture should give you a better clue. Look at what is not shown.

Sorry Tom...one more try.

Rudiger....think about it. What am I not showing. I know you can make a really good guess at it. Think a little out of the box. What would I show next?

Rudy

An excellent game Rudy! Some great fun!

I wanna say it so badly, but I'm keeping my big yap shut.
