Looking at these crosses, they all appear to have the same very skiiny "W"
and all seem to have the same forced looking patina and the same amount
of frame wear.
Without seeing a good picture or holding one in hand, it's impossible to say
for sure but the look of these crosses plus the fact that this dealer is known
for selling a lot of fake crap gives me reason to really doubt these crosses.
I welcome more opinions.
