: : I own one of the above paperweights but it does not have any markings of any kind on the base. Does that mean it is a second?

: I guess with "one of the above" you mean a Caithness weight - correct? Is it the one on the image?

: The fact it is not marked is no proof that it is a second - but it could be: for some time Caithness marked seconds with a label - which could easily be taken off (which is why this was dicontinued).

:Wolf, thank you. Sorry looking back at my description it is not too clear but yes you are spot on it is the one in the image.
It looks perfect to me but it does have three minute (biggest about 0.5mm diameter) bubbles in the glass. In your experience would that be enough for it to be regarded a second?

Kind Regards Graeme
