    Parra and Pilot - Fakes??

    Are these fakes? I'm assuming that the small one in the middle is a fantasy but what about the others?

    The rivits on the Pilot look a bit rough - shouldn't they be more rounded?

    On the Para I can't find any examples with the reverse indentations on the eagle.

    What do you think? Am I wrong?

    Thanks

    James

          Hi James,

          All three are reproductions IMO. The pilot most certainly is, well known fake with this bogus maker mark.

          The para also looks to be fake, but can you provide a straight on shot of the obverse for us to see? Looks like a fake Assmann wreath with a IMME eagle. This is a big red flag, along with the hardware, but a straight on shot of the front would help us be sure.

          If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little
