Morphy auction

The Morphy auction coming up in January has a 5c Jennings Victoria Silent Peacock item number 182 up for auction.The faceplate for the peacock does not have the Jennings logo in the casting. All the pictures I have found have the logo. So is this a machine a reproduction ?

Hi Doug
I think that is an Original !
Already seen this model without the “J” before !
And in the book “Jennings Slot Machines 1906/1990” from Dick Bueschel , page 291 .
The only one copy that I know was made in Germany by “Schwarz” like the photo below.

But since the one from Morphy is in 5ç and no Skill stop ,I don t think that is one from Schwarz !
But if you can, check the black plat on the left side !! If it’s the same than this or similar , go away , it a Deutsche Machine !
