ZF41 scope mount - original

[PrinzEugen]

Kameraden - recently picked up a ZF41 scope mount completely blindly it has to be said. Having done a minor bit of research my initial thoughts that it might be a repro have been revised and I think it may be genuine. Things like the overall very rough patina and so forth. I'd appreciate the opinions of the experts though. It is marked with a 'v' on the inside of one of the arms, k98k-zf.41 on the end with no markings on the end of the cradles and no rifle number engraved on the top. Edit - there should be a question mark at the end of the thread title! I can't imagine how it got in such a state apart from presuming it might have been made that way in desperate days at the end of the war. The dov and 'v' I understand suggest it is at least a late mount.
