Hi Wayne,

You're right to have doubts... It's not original. The fakers have used a 2nd pattern 'Juncker' wreath combined with a 2nd pattern 'Assmann' eagle. Hinge, catch and rivets are poorly done... Not one for your collection.

Below: An original 2nd pattern 'Assmann'... for comparison.

Reverse..

Many thanks again, you are saving me a small fortune, will go and break the news to the seller.
