Dino81 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Just want to see what the experts think. I really appreciate any input gents! I acquired these before I knew of this forum and the Czar :-/ Monte#4. The logo is embossed, but a bit off center Pantelas. Two dots, couldn't get a draw to save my life Here's the others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srbbones Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 The cohiba band has only 2 rows of dots above the text portion. Bad sign. I also have pre-FOH tales. You can, at least, now feel comfortable here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stogieluver Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Not an expert, but I've seen a lot of Monte's and Cohiba's, and imho those two are very bad fakes. Not sure about the others, but they look okay to me. No doubt in my mind about the first two, though. Please don't rely on my opinion, though. There are several members here who's opinion I would value more than mine. Why don't you consider sending Trevor a pm and ask him to come over to this forum and take a look?

Ginseng Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Before he goes too much farther, I suggest that the OP contact a moderator or someone else experienced and ask about the source from which he procured these. Might be a simple step that saves a ton of sleuthing from a distance. Wilkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcarlson Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Caps and feet say as much as the bands. Those look awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garbandz Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Garbandz, could u please point out how the upmann band looks bad? Thanks the gold in the band bleeds thru red on the garlands,the fan fingers are messy and uneven and the lower border is missing gold entirely.
