I was surprised to see a plate with the Jericho story from Semireçye in Central Asia found at Verkhne-Nildino (https://warfare.6te.net/6-10/Plate-Semirecye-Jericho-Nildin.htm) was cast from the same mould as the plate with the Jericho story from Semireçye in Central Asia found at Anikovskoe (https://warfare.6te.net/6-10/Plate-Semirecye-St_Petersburg.htm). The gilding is different and there are major differences in the later engraving, particularly of the armour. See a side-by-side comparison of the Anikova and Nildin plates.

The Anikova plate is missing an axe that is present on the Nildin casting.
