What Makes It A One Looker?
Construction of the runes, overall execution of the tab. Exactly the way it should be. Buckram and white stich lines, text book. Again, study originals.
No "patina". You mean wear and discoloration due to exposure and use. This tab has never been issued, much less worn.
You really need to study this field in depth. Try Dachau collections.
As for preferring items that show their age, good luck with that. There are lots of well made fakes, aged appropriately.

The construction of the runes differed quite distinctly from the one's I’ve owned, especially the size of the thread used, that’s why I asked the question
