I've had this tab awhile. I doubted it @ first, now I'm not sure? Any help appreciated. Pauli

Don't feel bad - the workmanship is very nice, but the skull is too angular and weird, and the backing doesn't turn me on either.

The bullion is not as smooth as what is normally seen either. You see fake runic types with this bullion a lot.

Thanks Josias, & Mr. Jerry. After RobH's verification, I dissected the tab and found a white stiffener inside, it glowed like a star under UV. I suspected the bullion, as it is "wire" like, not "tape" like, as in my known true patches.
No biggie, not much $, and like you say, a reasonable repro.
Cheers, Pauli
