Ken HabeebE. Howard cases
Harold V., David, anyone, did Howard put any pre-1900 movements in gold-filled cases, or were they all solid?

Ken HabeebHmmm. Well, I'm hoping I got lucky in the purchase of an N-size circa '84 series VII. No mention of gold content, apparently original case, but low price.
Maybe too good to be true.
Postscript: I'm comparing marks between the case and the big book pg 35-37, and what I see is the Jas Boss 14K Filled 25 yrs mark over a serial number which is in turn over a Keystone 14K solid gold mark w/o the 14K over it - just the boxed circle C.
(C for confusing)
