(2 May 2020) LCC Nicholson in 1949 mentions the A80 (K) with larger figures and suggests it may have been sent out earlier than the A80 (K) with smaller figures known employed at Mount Charles with later name changed to Hagly Gap. The reality is that the A80 (K) larger figures obliterator has proved so elusive that even the Charles Winand collection (of 1531 different combinations with stamp/numeral on Pine wmk to Keyplates “A27” to “E”) contained not a single example, and Winand himself confused, even tried to separate his five examples A80 (K) small into smaller and larger versions of the same instrument! Confusion is further extended in the Proud handbook with the A80 small shown as a Type H horiz. obliterator. There is no evidence linking A80 (K) large to Mount Charles or elsewhere due there being no covers or dated pieces.
