CUBUSMC Posted September 6, 2018 Share #1 Posted September 6, 2018 Trying to find out if these are original or repro. The front is similar to other verified wings in my collection, but the back is more reflective and makes me think these are reproductions. Also, the markings are raised? Let me know your thoughts, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfrost Posted September 6, 2018 Share #3 Posted September 6, 2018 I think it could be ok. Some general questions, does the pin open up ~80-90 degress? It almost looks like the catch was replaced. If it were me, I would do a search for Meyer-metal marked wings. You can do the comparison there. Mostly, the restrike NS Meyer wings have a large incised "STERLING" mark. Better photos would help, but as I said, it doesn't immediately scream "restrike" to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUBUSMC Posted September 6, 2018 Author Share #4 Posted September 6, 2018 Yes, it only opens about 80 degrees. What else do you need a picture of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashlarue Posted September 6, 2018 Share #5 Posted September 6, 2018 Looks good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUBUSMC Posted September 6, 2018 Author Share #6 Posted September 6, 2018 Cool, so the raised hallmarks are not an indicator of a re-stamp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
