Some samples of authentic Gothic majuscule and minuscule script attached.

Compared to them, the lettering on this barrel, intended to look "antique"; actually, it cannot be termed but the most primitive sham the author has ever come across.

Also note the various dents and scratches, plus the ridiculous "aged" surface condition.

23,000 USD.
Well done.
Have fun, everybody.
