  1. Long time lurker. First time poster. I'm registering as I'd love some brothers to take a look at the below link. It's the first box I've ever had serious questions of authenticity on in my own stash (seen plenty of terrible ones on the golf course, of course). Purchased from an online European/Swiss outfit that has gold-clad reputation, but not a LCDH. https://imgur.com/a/hMAjH Ignore the RyJ box in some of the shots (which is obviously legit, beyond any question). I'm talking about the Upmann LCDH box. Seen probably 25+ CC boxes in my life, and I've never seen one without the date/factory code. Stamp clearly not here on this one. Not smudged off or blurred. Never there. Hologram on the box seal also has less "pop" than is normal, but it looks like it might be scuffed up a bit, which may explain it. Serial number verifies to the correct box. Seal is microprinted with correct serial. Cigars themselves look fine (caps, bands). Maybe one cap that's off-normal and maybe one foot cut at an angle, but within the margin of error from what I've seen. Most of this I'd say is Cuba being Cuba. But I've never seen a box without even an effort on a factory/date stamp. What says the board? I make a habit of not taking a single puff of suspected fakes (who knows what's in there). I'm leaning toward fine here, but could be talked out of it. [Posted this first to another forum, but this is what finally got me to register here. I didn't see any rule against cross posting, but please let me know if I missed that]
