(really, this goes for most of the old greek stuff on ebay-read the listing multiple times and be sure about what you're buying.) I've purchased the real-deal and been very happy with the prints. I've also almost made the mistake of buying the knockoffs, but thankfully realized it before bidding. I know some friends who were not so lucky.
The one I bought from this seller was definitely an original. But I do agree, be sure to check. I know there was another seller a while ago who was selling copies.

Oh goodness- this is an old style badge before they were standardized... I'd roughly guess this is pre 1920s! Thanks for the link!

I thought it was older. Very pretty. I hope it goes to an AChiO sister!
