How did I do?
With the stamping "Made in London England" the way it is, and the shape number I'm sure this is an older Comoys. I don't know why there is no C in the stem, but I can't believe it is a replacement, it just looks too perfect. But if it were a second, wouldn't the sub-brand be stamped on the pipe somewhere?
In addition to that it is stamped 87 and F.
I found this pipe in very good shape on eBay. The stem has very little oxidation with just some light teeth marks. The fitment of the stem is great, and the bowl looks good with just one minor fill that I can see. The rim is all dirty, but no cracks or anything.
Apologies for the photos, it is going to be a rainy New Years.
