Hugh, looks like a reproduction to me. The prongs are too long, they only need to be long enough to penetrate the cap, about 1/2" long, and they are usually made of stiff steel. Looks like aluminum, should be silver, and without seeing the teeth, it is hard to tell. The teeth should be very distinct, in two even rows, if not it is a repro and worth about $25.00 or so. A real on e goes for around $100.
