Joelski78 and I are currently working on a translation thread for a 46 pages booklet about the coticule industry in the past.
We haven't posted the actual thread yet, but seeing what is written in pencil on that kosher coticule, I really don't want to withhold you the following information.
I only hope the photo will travel through the SRP attachment mangle in one piece. If not, I'll find some other way to share this.
It's a small excerpt from the booklet, that speaks about the properties of the different coticule layers.

The lines about your coticule translate as follows:

"The veined one: for razor hones, when she is good,
she's the better value of the pit; but unfortunately,
she's often separated from the schist [the blue stone]
and must be glued onto a sole, a blue; she's
often also striped, caused by vertical layers of different hardness."
