lanner, your pics are not the very best but in These pics I cannot see anything which would raise a red flag. The etched eagle is -as said- etched and there always could happen small defects which could cause small etching defects, eg. often the eagle´s eye is missing. And such a template defect also could have caused the flattened swaz. Nothing which would disturb me.

lanner, the certain picture size limitation is valid for ALL members. But with certain programs you can produce big pics with small size.

Pics from lanner.
I do not have the least doubt that it is an original TN hewer. Proper hanger Clip is attached, leather parts of the hanger missing.
