Norm, I see nothing to indicate they are counterfeit. I looked at both auctions and they appear 100% genuine. Everything is there that should be, to include the gold ink that bleeds over in the area for the serial number when the paper is folded. The proper watermarks are also there.

As a note, the early warranty papers in this style did not have watermarks!

Those look good to me. The numbers are different in the bottom right. The books are different. One has brass corners. The papers look to be correct.
