Reverse. It is marked "RZM" (in a circle), 155/43, "SS" (runes in a double circle).

I'm no expert,but for me this is a repro.I don't like the style of eagle.The prongs/prong bar and catch are not a correct style.

Hallo Grumpy,

unfortunately I have to confirm : it's a well known fake, probably the best one (EM) surfacing the market.

Thanks for the input. Fortunately, the seller was honest in representing it as a reproduction. I agree it is extremely well done. Hopefully, others will see this thread and the photos to be alert for this type.
