You may be right and you may be wrong, I'm just not sure. I can't tell if the hole is coming through from the camera lighting and flash or if it's a light stamp that didn't make it through. I guess you are right though, no reason to fake a part like that because it isn't worth anything anyhow. Neat find though.
