A much more aesthetically pleasing segment with more symmetric scrolls.
The red marks indicate the ribband edge welds - note how straight the weld at the red arrow is.

I think the white is a decarburization line



Clearly one of the steel alternees stained much more darkly and one can only assume a much higher carbon strip of steel was 'stacked' into 'lopin'.
Hard to count but I think the 'lopin' had 6 steel and 6 iron alternees.
