Sorry about the cruddy image, I could never get the obverse right, but the reverse turned out okay. The seller had a large number of fakes, and I was sure given my accent that he was going to try to convince me that they were real, actually when I asked him about them he apologized about them, and said they were fake! I was surprised that because of my accent he didn't try to sell them as authentic. But these are cool pieces all the while, I have the originals, but these can be play pieces
