from the picture its a type one but colour I'm not too sure on, maybe one of the platers can help you
but the asking price?
it seems a bit rich to me , even for a #25 the centering, its difficult to get these issues well centered

Cheers

The color is that of #26 to my eyes.
Not the dull red of #25

No question it is a 25 type 1. Whether it is OG or not we obviously cannot tell.

It doesn't need to be Dull Red to be a #25.
