The "cigar tube" is becoming one of the most common fakes out there. Please beware: Faberge never produced a container for a single cigar. The phony imperial cipher is also a common deception. In this case, the marks are also incorrect. Here we see the "K.Faberge" and imperial eagle marks for Moscow along with the "HW" for Henrik Wigstrom and the kokoshnik mark with an alpha, both for St. Petersburg
