Default How can I tell if a nose emblem is a repo?

Looking for help from this knowledgeable community. I've started to collect nose emblems and I have the opportunity to purchase one for a 53-55.


Question how do I tell the difference between an original and a repo? The one I am looking at is almost to nice to be original.



thanks!

The repro's don't do the right black flag correct as seen of the NOS one.
