Hi Tom, with the ears like they are and the new rust it looks likes fake to me but has features of an original, let see what JP or Ric say about it, it has confused me to be honest

I really think the same as Ben on this one i.e. "aged FAKE!!"....lets here more from some others on this one..........

Thanks to all - just proves the adage that when something seems to good to be true, it usually is.

Can you indicate what it is that marks it out as a fake?

cheers

Tom,

the obverse detail indicates it like a variant of a well known repro made in East Europe with a marking totally wrong, to say few...

Here you may see the same repro differently marked :
