For those who have been around, are there published photos, other than the Kindig and KRA books, that would provide me with more reference info? Specifically #142 in Kindig's.

If there are no other sources could you give your opinion based on the text and photos in Kindig's book as to what constitutes the 14 silver inlays. There are 8 cat's-eye escutcheons, a thumb piece, 2 hearts on the beaver tails, and the Eagle cheekpiece device. Perhaps the cheekpiece inlay is thought of as 3 separate inlays?
