I'm just learning, and trying to get better at seeing fakes. The thing I see is the wide rim which makes me think it's fake. Must be obvious fake to most or seller would have gotten a bid or 2.

You are correct edweather, it's fake.
A poor example of one too, when compared to a real one!

Probably the first fake in ebay history that was so bad, nobody bid on it.
