Can anyone tell me if this plate is real or Fake and maybe what to look for?
I am waiting on pics of the back.

Thanks
Chuck.

Always look for the date in the lower right corner. Originals have it, like this one.

Unfortunately some of the repros have an "IR" code now in the lower right too.....not always a sure fire way of telling originality these days like it used to be.
