Follow up: so I took it back to my neighbor last night and he was pretty upset, I think he had his sights on it being real, but I told him that it still could be, but that it had the hallmarks of a fake. I think he may have paid good money for it, or at least thought he had something special...on the minus side, the "shoot the messenger" moment was in full effect for me, but on the plus side, I think...he gave me the Spange just for helping. Not sure what to do with a fake Spange, but it looks nice anyway! Lol! Thanks for your help Joe! God bless
