cigarzfan Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) One of the things we look for in Cohiba bands is whether the bottom squares touch the Cohiba name box. Just got some VI tubos where bottom line of white boxes hit the Cohiba name box. So...label misprints do occur occasionally, correct? Edited March 6, 2020 by cigarzfan Pics added
garbandz Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 One of the things we look for in Cohiba bands is PICS.......... this thread is worthless without pics......... 2
cigarzfan Posted March 6, 2020 Author Posted March 6, 2020 I’ll post some in morning when I get back to work.

Hammer Smokin' Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 interesting. I guess that's why Prez advises the only way to truly know you are getting real cigars is to trust your source. I would have had the same concerns as you. 2
TheCigarslayer Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 Hit it with a blacklight. I blacklight every Cohiba I get. (Monte's new band also has UV check).

The Squiggler Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 Of course there are occasional print irregularities even in the highest-end printshops (It brings to mind all the baseball card misprints that somehow made it past QC). If you are secure in the provenance of your cigars you should be able to observe and discuss these irregularities as anomalies without too much time spent bickering about whether or not they are *indisputable signs of counterfeits. It's a shame the conversation rarely gets that far (especially on other forums).
Chibearsv Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 I'm happy to perform further analysis on all of your Siglo VIs. Larger sample supply 25ish preferred. No guarantee of return though. ?
NSXCIGAR Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 I would say this would certainly be within the margin of error for Vrijdag. If the security features check out I wouldn't be concerned.
Edward7 Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 Hey if it were a bank note or stamp or some other type of print, misprints would make it far more valuable. Smoke it and you’ll be able to tell. I don’t think tubo 3 packs get faked as much as boxes and glass tops.
