I’ve seen a sign with those colors and logo. Never a globe. Looks a bit suspect to me, tbh. Is it fired? What does the back look like?

Can we see the back?
Colors are off and it just doesn't look right...

Looks way too new.

The glass is too shiny and the colors show no age.

I'll bet the back (the white layer) is smooth as a baby's bottom.

IMHO, a non- dated fantasy lens.

Later . . .

bottom has V notch and many repops don't have that notch. It sure doesn't look good...

That's no good... unmarked repop. I would like to know who is making unmarked repops as that is pure destruction for this hobby!!

Tell us more, I've been around a long time and have never heard that name and I know others are in the same boat.
