I know who made them and I ain't tellin'. Several have been sold in the past few years. That's fine, as long as the chain of honesty continues. I prefer a repro to be made to look repro or a commemorative even better. Even as a reenactment piece, I never saw a need for pontils. That's just unnecessary. They could at least mark the stuff as ?? factory or fake. I've made repro labels and while they wouldn't fool anyone on examination, I still mark them clearly as fake or copy or whatever. Caveat emptor I suppose but I still don't like it.
