Hi Peter,

You show photos of the "New Rounder" fake (first one), and the "Rounder" fake (cased with oaklaeaves).

The "New Rounder" is generally considered a bad, ugly fake with little to no value. The "Rounder" is one of the older fakes, and it fooled a lot of people for a long time before it was unmasked as a fake by Dietrich Maerz. It has some value to collectors as a display piece for mannequins, etc.

[Tony T-S]

Yes, the actual Rounder is an interesting piece for the collection just for it's place in faker history

[Tom B]

Nice looking "FAKES"

Ribbon should go through the oaks, and not hang upside down from the loop....as the oaks are upside down...(anyway, just thought I'd chime in while they are beating you to a pulp).
