I think it's a very old eastern that has lost its pattern, and truth be told, looks more male than female.

THAT's a tough old guy there who has had quite a life! I wonder if he was captive to have worn his hinge so much....maybe repetition but it could be gnawing marks too maybe with his top battle scars? I don't know, but I bet he could tell us all stories if he could talk!
