RAL PARTHA 1976 FEMALE METAL MINIATURE

Hello. Could anyone please identify the Ral Partha female, stamped
1976, in the "Vintage Grenadier Ral Partha" auction at the link below.
She looks like she might be an AD&D thief but I haven't been able to
find official names for any of these figures and it is vexing me.
Thank you in advance.

That is one of the earliest figures - ES 18 "Adventuress."

It looks like the female thief from one of the Grenadier boxed sets. If I
get a chance I'll look it up later...

Yep, "Adventuress" or "Adventuress with Short Sword", dating from the very
early 80s. Later added to the Personalities line, and renumbered 01-018, still
called "Adventuress". Here's a picture on someone's website from a different
angle:

Not to be confused with the later 01-018 pack, Three Ladies and a Hero.

(You've gotta love the way RP numbered and renumberd their minis over the
years.)
