Hi

Visible in the three photos;

- The quality of the stitching
- The head of the pull strap
- Raw leather showing in the stamp impresssions. These would have darkened over time on even the mintiest original
- The stamps have squared off haloes from the stamp base itself surrounding them. Original stamps did not have block bases
- No maker's code

There are probably more details such as no heel sown into the rear two halves of the holster but these details are not visible in the photos provided.
