Thanks Nick!I know it.Replica is laser scanned original and reveals all draws on Stone surface.Rare case,copy
is better than original.I ask British to sell me photo 1:1 ratio of stone but they sell only double A4 which is too small for me.But...who knows,maybe will?!?Poster on the Wall maybe!?!Smile

You can get scaled-down replicas of the Rosetta stone in their gift shop. This one can be used as a paperweight:
