In 1940 the original were certainly three types.

a) model "F" [F30] 1.5 V, 30-50mA.
57mmx57mmm
h = 120mmm

b) the model "T" [T30]
similar to F

c) model [T1] 1.5 V, 90-120Ah.
100x100mm
h = 190mm

Compare dimension

I fell for the same battery once. I bought mine over 10 years ago when they were relatively plentiful, I guess that is when they were faked. I have also seen the paper labels sold separately.

The original batteries have one wire and one screw connection in the middle. If you find one with this configuration there is still no guarantee of originality as these batteries remained in production virtually unaltered in Eastern Germany after the war.

Yes, but in this case battery on GM is fake.

Here is an original example (the only one in my collection)
It was actually still connected inside a FF33 that I bought a couple of years ago.

Indeed, and a very expensive one at that!
