See eBay #6186875740. Anyone who knows Mettlach knows this is not Mettlach 2388 (which is actually the pretzel stein). Anyone who knows HR steins will recognize it as such. The Mettlach base marks have been applied fraudulently. I have sent an email to the seller telling them that this stein is not what it appears to be. Note that I am not accusing the seller of applying this mark and attempting to defraud, simply letting them know the facts. Of course, as an HR stein it is still very collectible, and the fraudelent marks may add a little value as a curiosity factor.
