Saw this eagle over the weekend. It looks like a good one to me, but I'm not up on all of the latest fakes. What do you guys think?
Thanks, Doug

Hello,
I believe that this eagle is probably a good one, but caution is called for as this style is widely reproduced. It is a hard call without seeing it in person. Here is the closest repro that I am aware of. You can see that they are close, but the one you show is different in some significant aspects.
I'm afraid I would have to see the back to offer a more educated opinion.
Regards,
Bill unland

It would be nice to see a more detailed shot of the Spittal (an der Drau )one.
That towns down in Austria (state of Karnten). So it's probably a local manufacturer.
Although I always hate to see "closeups" because I'm afraid that it only helps those bottom dwellers achieve more success.
