I don't know the seller, "panzerkeil," but for months he has been offering one formation sign combination after another. So many that I've begun to wonder. The combinations are always perfectly put together, like this one. Maybe more expert collectors who know their British dealers can tell me, is he legit? Or, are these combos being assembled to make their components more attractive?

Dob,
The answer to the question in your last sentence is - Yes!
Fortunately fabricated combinations are relatively easy to identify.

I was afraid so. Any tips you can share on how to recognize them?
