Dez,

I beg to differ! I had one that was marked with a 2 and had 5 rivets. IT WAS ALSO A COPY, and I am alomost positive the engraved details were similar script, and placement. I just looked for a photo and I can't guarantee this, but now that I think about it........

Mine even came from Germany, I guess I should have had somebody from Brazil tell me it was authentic

OK Ricardo, I know it hurts, but I think that big idea with this forum is to share experiences and to learn.
About a year ago I showed one of my OL sets here and voilá; it didn´t take long before I learned it was a fake.
I have been collecting over 30 years.
You learn all the time!!!
It´s impossible to be updated on every ****ing fakeproducer and I know that the seller believed it was OK.
My piece of **** came from Snyder´s crap-corner, too. It came from Snyder´s, via a collector and then to the Hamburg dealer.
As I had a guarantee, the dealer took it back and I didn´t loose any money.
Use your lifetime guarantee and send it back.
I would have understand you unwillingness to send it back if one or two collectors here showed thumbs down, but we are quite many now.
But, as somebody said, it´s your money...

Ricardo.
