coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/30/2020 5:03 pm Note the color is peeling. Just painted or coated with something. On the real black beauties, the color doesn't wear off. They are actually burned from the annealing process. Finding them in a OBW roll is probably only way I would believe they are the real deal.
