    That's a shame. Any indications it being fake?

    Overall low quality for me. I would not be a buyer, but I am no expert and would defer to CBH.

    It should be three piece construction, the attachment loop should be a separate piece under a backing plate. The example shown is two piece or one piece construction.

    Are we sure this isn't a ground-dug original? Sure looks like it could be to me!

    The ring looks cast to me.

    Its very corroded and dirty, but I think we're looking at an original piece...

    You might be right, I don’t like the loop, but the corrosion to the edge shows that it’s two piece construction. I stand corrected.
