That sounds like brockage, but is there any sign of Abe's head?

The thing I'm checking for is a fake or a vise job.

Most would be able to verify it.

I can't confirm it without pics, but I also can't say it's fake. I can't give you a definitive answer, so I would say taking it to the dealer is the next step.
