    IMO, it's an original bronze zinc example.

    Hey Ralph, this is not a good one IMO, compare to an original Hobacher and you’ll see massive differences, the Hobacher IAB has the Vienna design from the front like the Souval etc.

    You are correct Jordan.
    Thank you, I was busy re-titling threads, and responding to PM's, didn't really have a good look.
    One of mine to compare Andrew.

    No problem mate, busy life is always a pain. That’s a beautiful example, nice when they still have plenty of finish.

    Agreed with the others...This one is a fake.

    When looking at the obverse of this fake, it more closely resembles the M.K. 1-7 series ISA design than the original W. Hobacher.

    Here are a couple I have of the WH Fake for reference.

    And a couple of original Wilhelm Hobacher, Wien ISA's to compare.

    The first has the Block hinge hardware and the second is the Sheet Metal hinge variant.
