Well, reencounter is a figure of speech

The previous one, already discussed here:

... came from a Spanish auction site, with the help of a reputed forumite; the present couple was acquired in an antiques shop, not so far from my place. I wouldn't reject the idea that they also originate from Spain, though; it is obvious that they all came from the same forge or, at least, from the same area of influence.
The larger one is just a little smaller than the one i already had, but the smaller one has one third less dimensions ... and weight. However the caliber of all three is roughly the same.
A touch worthy of note is the four dot mark on the larger one that, this time, was applied below the touch hole.
