1 and 2 are fake. 3 and 4 are authentic.
Could you let me know why 2 is fake? I am getting pushback from the seller when I'm returning. I also see that it says "CHINA" and "SOLID BRASS" on the brass which I know really proves the fact that it's fake, but I just was wondering if there are some resources I can put in the claim to prove that fact

Just to refresh, this is the link to the listing
9997

And the "CHINA" on the brass

K3H prefix is always fake. The H plant in the US was shut down in the 90s. You already know about the solid brass. I don't know what resources you could use other than the forum.
