I recently came across one of these as well. I'm a new collector and I was wondering if I could get some opinions on the piece before purchasing?

Thank you kindly for your reply and you help. I'm delighted to hear that it looks good! Could you recommend some good books and resources that would help me grow in knowledge to be better able to determine real from fake pieces?

I suggest you study originals only. If you try to study fakes, you will have problems when a new fake comes on the market. If you study originals, you will know when an item is not correct.
We also have a section for reference books on this forum.
https://www.warrelics.eu/forum/forum-reference-library/

There are many reference threads here on this forum for just about anything you will find. If you see something you are interested in, come to this forum and search out threads relating to the subject. Read as many as you can and compare.
There are many items posted here that I am not familiar with. When that happens, I search out threads and compare with the one in question.
Above all else, read, read, read.
