Fake Bolivar?

I just bought a Bolivar Belicoso Fino from '07 and a friend of mine told me that it was a fake. He actually said that it's a terrible fake, but he's not necessarily a connoisseur of CC's! I have uploaded a few pictures of the cigar and was hoping for some input.

The band slides on and off very easily. I'm not sure if that is an important determining factor though.

The flash of my camera affected pictures 2 & 3, but then I turned the flash off for the rest. Clicking on the thumbnails will enlarge the pictures!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Re: Fake Bolivar?

The band sliding off may just mean the cigar is dry. But the band is off center and missing embossed dots, as well as the second coin is wrong. I would have to say it is fake as well.


Here is the real deal.

Re: Fake Bolivar?

I think that answers it pretty clear. Going to close this thread because it is in the wrong section but member does not have enough post to be in the right section. Thanks for the answer Andy!
