Hi Nick,

Sorry, but that is a reproduction IMO. The soft details on the obverse, as well as the crude, soft edges around the entire reverse are the first big red flags here. The cast-in hinge and catch are also crudely formed, compared with originals.

Here is the reverse of one of my GWL's, so you can compare.

Send this one back if you can.

I agree with Tom here, close to, but not the real deal.

A lucky escape !
