Examining a few sikin panjang recently, I noticed that some of the nine-panelled 'crown' mounts at the bases of the hilts, with alternating panels of green and blue enamel, the panels in the lower tier alternating blue under an upper green one, and green under a upper blue one (see attached pictures) had one upper panel, near the edge side of the blade, that was half green and half blue, with the lower tier half blue and half green. Is this common? Unfortunately the enamel on some of those I examined was too worn to be able to tell if they were enamelled in the same way.
