Hi,
I totally agree with Ed, and won't repead what he already stated so nicely. Just to add, Kutuzov IIIcl. is definitely a fake, for many reasons. The scan of BK doesn't allow to determine anything for sure, it's just too small and lacks details.
I have a couple of Kutuzov's IIIcl, different variants (though all screwbacks), some with Pauls COA, it is apparent that yours doesn't look even close to any of mine, when it comes to collar details, hair, hairlines inside the tower, the concentric circles on reverse, and of course, the mint mark.
Hope you didn't pay for this "group" yet...
Alex.
