        Stogie-Rick gave me a copy a while back... I have been unable to get a usable scan made of it:

        it is cast BRASS, and relies on being polished shiny to "look like" the originals, which were struck, fire gilt, and with polished highlights. The finish is nothing like an original and will only fool someone who has never even seen a scan of a good one.

        I have also seen copies, which sell for about 9 dollars, in dark patina'd brass as well-- a finish no original will ever come in.

          Lots of fakes, listed as such, currently on German ebay. Most are 1870 campaigns.
