Feed us the necessary info which will help fellow members make immediate determinations & claims of their findings instead of going back & forth.
Dont mean to sound condescending but im sure others feel the same and also dont want to annoy u in any way by making multiple requests
Do u have a digi-cam with Makro settings that u could use or are u using your phone cam?
We are here to help u put your mind at ease with your very interesting finds!

Do understand your frustrations. My eyes and camera dont mix well together.
First of all, in Nick jones list there are 2 variations : with and without towhook. Asked around and nobody has a model in his collection. Know that I found one, maybay the base is polished, but the rivets are clearly no fakes. My remark : when I present a model everyone has doubts . Let me say in Belgium I have one off the biggest superfast collection around. Have lots of very difficult ones even from the regular models. ( I recognize a fake)
I thought everyone would be interested to see a model that was hard to find. Maybey i'm mistaken.
Also next week I would present a real (no fake) blue iso grifo with white interior of the regulars but now I will not do it.
Maybey time to quite the forum (the best there is due to the great expectise of many collectors).
Sounds maybey hard what i have said but comes straight from my hart. Sorry If I make mistakes in my writhing (int gents gezegd elk zijn mening)
