Hi Nassif,

     Your photos are clear but I cannot make out the monogram. Could you draw it out, or make an impression of it? If I can identify your monogram, I will see what I can find in the books that I have.

Hi Nassif,

     Sorry for my crude drawing...

     Figure A is what I think I see.  Figure B is what should typically be there.

     The monogram on your weight may be quite different altogether.
