Second look says those cigars were not originally from those bands maybe. Rg look off. Bands too big that is.

Here is what a real one should look like -





The caps look off to me, and the embossing seems to be really off.

From whom did you get these?

Thanks for the help guys, glad I didn't pay for them or I would be really upset. When things are too good to be true they usually are.

My dad is a car wholesaler and one of his clients just gave them to my dad since he knows he smokes cigars. He gets tons of booze and cigars gifted to him all the time, just rarely CCs.

If I were you, I would probably dissect one of those, then if it looks safe, smoke the second.

That's what popped when I looked at the photographs; Is there no triple cap, or am I just missing it?

It's hard to see but there is just a double cap. That's the main thing that gave it away to be a fake.

Was given two Siglo VI's yesterday. The band looks like authentic printing(font & colors are spot on) except the embossing is slightly off. The cigars smell like they should and is the proper looking filler. The cap though makes me really feel these are fakes, but some of the best fakes I have seen yet. I am still new to the CC game, any expert opinions?

The "C" in Cuba is important as I have learned as well. This one is offa little. I am with a previous poster, smoke one and see what you got.

oh, ben, are those pretty or what!

 

[BEN(SWEDEN)]

Made me hard!!

 

[njstone]

Jealous, Ben!

 

[Pooh Bore]

I'm sorry but Ben needs to be banned !!

These pictures are doing me no good at all, I keep telling SWMBO I need these cigars and she keeps insisting its the wedding or cigars...

Better to apologize than to ask permission!!
