Someone beat the hell out of that box and never smoked a single one! 🤓

I'm almost sure those are new cigars/bands. I've seen that 10rg variation in countless modern boxes, but never anything like that in an older box. The bands are also glistening, gleaming, new looking. I have 5 year old boxes of Partagas with more tarnish(whatever it is when they turn green) on the bands than that.

With @Corylax18 on that one. Though pics are poor qual, this isn’t >60 yr old cigars. Most probably (original) box filled up with newer Aristocrats, a remaining current production Petit Cetros format. So it’s quite easily done. Bands point towards 2002-2008 prod, but a closeup of the bands would be conclusive. (well, actually sniffing on that box would be... 😄)

Oh, im in full agreement. No way those cigars belong in that box.

Agree. Thought the same thing. These look just like new Aristocrats. Bands also look very high quality like the 02-08 revised version. That box also looks pretty beat up inside and out. Doubt the original cigars have been in it for a long time.

I think someone found an old box with a modern vitola and got a bright idea.
