What do you make of this ebay listing? Are the perforations likely faked, from a scott 314 pair? At 25.5 mm in height, it seems too tall to be a pair of scott 300. Hard to imagine that the pair could be a genuine coil pair.

Very interesting that the seller could give us a CV, but could not give us a catalog number. Where did he arrive at the value?

Of course it's not a government coil. Probably is a Covel coil, page 581 of the 2017 Scott's Specialized catalog. Perfs need to be checked to 12-67 on the United States Specialist Gauge to confirm.

If that doesn't match it's someone's creation.
