Hello,
The top clasp-no way, the bottom clasp looks ok. The front of the clasp has no detail, what happened to it? It looks like it was ground or buffed off. You also need shots of the complete maker mark. If the front of that clasp really looks that bad, I would not want it at all. I would like to see better pictures of it.

Agree with Jody but would like to see pin up shots of the reverse. John

First clasp is a definite fake--to know why, you can study the period examples posted on this forum and compare the pin and letters.

Hello,
As I said the first clasp is a piece of junk. The 2nd clasp looks alright, just really worn.
