Guys, we are not going to change his mind. If he agrees, then his whole collection becomes fake. I bet Mogul bought most of this from one dishonest dealer, who took him to cleaners. These kind of things happen a lot to a novice collectors. You trust someone, and he stuffs you with all these fakes. YOU CAN ONLY TRUST YOUR OWN EYES!!! LEARN THE SUBJECT. IT'S YOUR OWN MONEY AT RISK.
Most of these were converted to screwbacks. It's impossible to find one with no damage to the top ray. If you get me better pictures, I'll be able to give you an answer with 100% certanty.
I'm going to repeat myself. The connecting ring is too fat, the serial number is stamped too deep, and the plate that holds the red fabrique is definetely a fake (прижимная пластина).
You need to value the opinion of few individuals. There are few people on Russian speaking forums that know what they are talking about, but only few people. I've been collecting for 13 years. I know what I'm talking about.
Mogul, the purpose of the fakers is to fool collectors. That's why the fakes look like original. I'm the expert in this field. If you want to send me better pictures on olezha11@aol.com, I'll be able to help you. Or, you can try to ask on Russian speacking forums.
