Alfred Posted June 26, 2010 Posted June 26, 2010 I do not like this one. The mint stamp looks wrong, the T-shirt of the man is rounded and not square as it is on original pieces. I have strong doubts. best regards Andreas
ph3s Posted June 26, 2010 Posted June 26, 2010 Here is a simple hint, the men on scewbacks has to look childish, with 'square' head , on yours he is a 'grown-up' one.
bifter Posted July 16, 2010 Posted July 16, 2010 Here is a simple hint, the men on scewbacks has to look childish, with 'square' head , on yours he is a 'grown-up' one. Could this be a genuine flatback that has been 'twisted' into a screwback by having its loop removed & a screwpost added? I have a nice flatback with its screwpost removed & a loop soldered on! Am i correct to assume removing screwposts & adding ribbon loops was the norm, & removing loops & adding screwposts wwas more to do with trying to get more money by fooling the unsuspecting collector?
Paul R Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 I do not like the fake patina/corrosion either. I am sorry...
