?

Not good IMO.

looks like a L/19 PIN,APART FROM THE CATCH.

[Darrell]

The obverse has to be a whole lot better than the reverse before I change my opinion.

repro

iam 99% sure its a repro,with 1% thinkn is it good.can anyone point out why they think its a repro.

[streptile]

can anyone point out why they think its a repro.

Simply put, because it doesn't match any authentic ones, and does match some known fakes... so far.

That said, I would like to see better photos to say with 100% certainty.

[jt327gir]

I don't like it at all.

[fabri-online]

These EKI are not so hard to find here in Europe, are known fakes.
