A lot of these turned up some years ago, they are controversial. I had one but lost confidence in it.

Managed to purchase three boxed during the time they seemed to turn up, all three where Austrian wine marked, also heard they might be controversially.

As mentioned a number of years ago there was a big discussion on one of the forums regarding the authenticity of these items. Don’t remember which forum it was on unfortunately. At the time I believe there was no definitive answer on real or not. I didn’t acquire any because I did not like how the finish on them looked. Looked like zinc badges get as they age. Again, don’t know what the consensus is nowadays on them but I’m still not thrilled with the finish on them, real or not.
