I don't think I'm prepared to take a guess on exactly what this is.

I notice what appears to be two pins in the sorsoran. Do you know what these are? Is it another type of pesi repair or what? Have you had the hilt off?

Possibly the best way to post pics so that the keris can be seen easily and properly is like these two that I have posted.

The sorsoran has small gold specks on it (what you refer to as pins) As I said, I dont understand the purpose of these in terms of design?? Maybe its to cover up something? I dont think they were part of the original design.

I will take the hilt off and take some photos
