I could use some expert input on this one before I input into my database. I have this as #87 MNH vf. It seems possible its a z grill but I can't really tell what the orientation is on the ridges. Initial impression is vertical, which would have to be an E grill. Any guidance is much appreciated. Apologies in advance if the pics aren't good enough I tried =/Image Not Found

Almost looks as if the bottom has been reperfed...poorly.

now that you mention it, it does look pretty rough. I have this one slated for expertizing, so I suppose I'll find out for sure then.
