I have owned 2 black plate Hunt & Obyrne cues and both of them had a number stamped onto the cue and a certificate of authenticity with them.

I would not say the cue in the pics is a fake for sure but I cant see the stamp and the badge does not look exactly the same as the ones on the cues I have owned.

There will not stamp the no. on the round butt?
so far I saw 2 pattern for the stamp no. 1 stamp on the plate , 2 stamp on the wood of the butt, which one is correct or 2 pattern are genuine?

cue looks right to me - the joint looks correct and you would be crazy to use it otherwise!

Hi
you consider that a genuine cue right?
But, that cue look very new , it's the possible to keep the older cue 98-100%new?
