Help with identifying authentic crown?

[bronco1626]

I have been looking for a 4204 crown for my pie pan and I have been have a hard time trying to determine which crowns are authentic and which are knock-offs. For instance, I found this one online that I want to buy, but I'm not entirely sure it is authentic. What do you all think?

Also, if anyone has any leads on where I could buy one, please DM me.

Thanks!

All crowns after the 69’s are gold plated.

prior to that. They were gold filled or gold capped giving them a more natural gold colour vs. The gold plate which bright and shiny

lots of eBay sellers state NOS on crowns, but easy to spot the difference old filled/capped and plated

not sure if anyone is faking them. Omega made a vast number of different crowns. To me. Not worth the cost of faking to sell a small number of them

unfortunately. Sometimes you have to settle as the original are much harder to find

The crown you shared is most likely aftermarket, not original Omega, and likely not the same dimensions as the original you seek (few aftermarket ones are).
