This is a known kind of fake. The hinge as said is wrong. Aurich never used an entirely round ball hinge. Also as said, details soft. Some sellers will try to convince collectors that this hinge setup is indeed a rare variant of hinge that Aurich used. This a lie, as it is completely fake.

This kind of hinge is displayed on this page Fakes

Sorry,this is one of the most obvious PKA fakes. H Aurich never used a ball hinge. These,i believe are a fairly modern fake. Stewy
