Looking to buy this Winchester stock but this cartouche is bothering me. Looks too good to be legit. Thoughts on if it’s real or is it a re stamp? Don’t need to know the tricks just need to know if I should pass or grab it.

Just curious and for the sake of learning something, what characteristics led to this conclusion?  I was guessing real based on the apparent aged look of the indentations but that can be "doctored".
