Default 1CANPARA copy?

My thoughts is that this is a copy, the recent reproductions have a cut to the shourd on the third riser on the right side.

Honestly, I am not sure, butt think this one is OK. I am not in the market for one as I have one already.

But I would be comfortable with this example. (I wonder if this means I would be taken)

Looks bad to me... note the lack of pebbling in the background (interior) of the chute. Same detail as the fakes. And like Mike mentioned, the nick on the chute which is a common feature of this particular copy. Not to mention the same type and location of lugs. Definitely bad.

Check out this previous thread.... http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...ead.php?t=8175

Sorry Cliff, but in this case you would have been stung.... someone else was....
