this just reminds me of Geseas anomaly on his 78 . it looks like it extends up on to the MM where it meets it on the lower right .. this is why i want to get Ziess to build a coin scope version, with big optics and no stacking required... Picture borrowed From Dennis ,, it's pariodilla , its a treas...

Excellent! Looks nice. Sticking with the template makes it easier to view them all quickly. Thanks for doing this. Hoping you have a graphics tablet of some sort.

Is this luster you mentione...
