There's a nice disclaimer in the text, like Who, Me?? but the pontils look like they were put on with a dremel tool. Reminicent of a scam from some years ago when a bunch of Fred Wilganowskis' marbler showed up with the same type pontils. I remember one from the same area of Wisconsin a few years ago.

I looked at her 23 other listings and the only other one that had private bidder ID is the other fake "Indian lutz". Isn't that surprising? Stay away from this scammer.
