I wonder: how can it be 200 years ANIVERSARY if it says that the white house was built in 1792, and the lighter released (judging from the date on the bottom) in the 90 th year, was already 198 years

kowal27, is a fake. Can immediately say why, but I suggest you find the most obvious signs of a fake. Are you ready?

Funny thing. IMHO, the original will be a higher price in my opinion)) For a fake ... but what!

But surely there are fakes that are on the shelves of collectors and are positioned as the originals. In the sense that they are so qualitatively made that even can not recognize the special trick. Probability of the existence of such things of course is very small, but still you can imagine. Who do you think?

I believe that the collector can recognize the fake, but ... on the shelves of high-quality counterfeit occupy a separate niche. For example, if I were a collector, a little piece from the first post of this topic would surely bought ... IMHO, of course ...

Maybe the way, and not a fake. I have often seen similar errors in authentic Japanese Zippo. In general, the lighter itself is exactly the original. But the fact that it is engraved - is another question ...
