My main argument was the fact that the gold coftgari and stamps look strickingly brand new. I've seen similar stamps being offered for $100 each in Damascus. The fittings obviously look old, and typical for the era. Perhaps there is something we did not see on the pictures, i.e. nice wootz pattern and/or old coftgari on the ridge of the blade.
