[ben bijker]

Hi all,

I have had this spange for years now, did a forum-search already, but the number of variations keeps puzzeling me.

any thoughts??

Thanks,
Ben

can you post the reverse for 101% check?

Well, after 20 attempts my thread does show up....

I thought it was a fake, but it does have many things in common with the originals I saw.

That's very nice to hear Jon!

Here's a pic of the reverse:

Looks good to me also, I believe this is the unknown maker...Cheers...Jeff

pin could be a replacement though, very nice though (I'll take it)
there are very good repros of this one popping up, I think we have to keep our wits about us!

Well, I bought it in the Czech Republic years ago, but I wasn't really convinced that it was actually original.

Glad it is though

Regards,
Ben
