I am not a real expert, but I have some doubts with that. The inside shows no wear, while the star shows heavy wear. The stamps look a little too bright and clear to me like the so called "super stamp".

It is only a speculation and I hope the experts may proof originality better.

Hi all, your opinion on this hat if possible

I think the star is not so much "worn" as "mothed". If they were not heavily worn, the stamps in the later buds usually are pretty clear. I don't have problems with this one

Hi, Jeffrey. I'm not completely sure what you mean. Are you judging two hats?

Both "schlems" look fine to me
