Godet RK Loop Genuine?

[johnrtse]

I just bought a 1957 RK from a forum member (thanks Soren!) and it came with a marked suspension loop. I believe that the RK is 1970's production.

The loop is marked "21 800". The measurements are as follows: length 22mm, width 10mm, and wire diameter approximately 1.5mm. I don't have anything to weigh it. Check out the pic below (using Soren's pic that he sent me).

Does this appear to be a genuine Godet loop; Wartime, postwar, or reproduction/fake? Not that it makes much difference, but it has me curious.

Thanks in advance!

Lots of tool marks and sloopy ends. Postwar in my opinion.

Sorry.

Thanks Peter! That's OK though; It is a postwar RK, after all
