This M18 ‘Ohrenausschnitt’ is a fully identified reproduction in France. 20 years ago, at the Krakow flea market, it was piled up one on top of the other, priced at €30 each for tourists.
If Patina has been misled, it's unacceptable, given that it's a reputable professional in Germany.
If Patina knows it's a counterfeit, disguised as the real thing, that's scandalous.
The new cap and chinstrap have been deliberately removed, because they do not conform to the real M18 and are immediately identifiable even by a beginner.

Note the words ‘sellers’ from the fable in the legend:
--- ‘attic find’.
---irreproachable original’.
I'll leave you to appreciate the price of this extraordinary piece.
Just because you're selling a ‘no ear’ doesn't mean you have to be deaf ... and blind.
