Guys,
how is it possible to see weather a script (like 60/ 90/ C or 1600) is an original or aftermarket one?
Weight or are there any other special marks?
Any idea is appreciated ....

I recognise on some a small R with a circle around on the backside, what does it mean?

I believe the "R" is the initial of the company that made the script rather than "Registered".

Any idea of the name? Does anyone have originals?

the good repros also have the R. I remember something about the grain being different on repros but that may be old news.

Jules, I'll bet a lot of people don't know about the grain or "pebbling" between the letters.
