Default 207 Coil --Real or Repro?

Hi Folks,
I found this #207 coil among my parts and I'm not sure if it's an original or a repro.
What do you folks think? Also, what should I ask for it? There is some minor damage at the top of the phenolic where the coil wire plugs in.
Here's some pictures;

Are the terminals steel or stainless steel? Tough to tell from the pics.

Id say its real. If not, that's the best fake I've ever seen

I think on the re-pops the studs are stainless so a magnetic would not stick.
If real, $200 isn't a unrealistic price

I have an NOS 207 coil from the '80's and studs are magnetic.
I also have a GM screened #'s used 207 that also has the label and am pretty sure was made in Andover IN (where "good" aftermarket" coils used to be made) and has brass posts
It came from a North Carolina stock car racing team in the early 2000's
