Hi Stonemint thank you thats a great help
Wow- I wouldn't have guessed that it was a fake...fairly convincing overall and the aging is done rather well in my opinion...Thanks go to Stonemint for so generously sharing the fruits of his research...
cheers, Glenn
Glenn for me it looked like it had a chance even has moth damage to the top ,just goes to show how good the fakes have become

"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
