If you contact ST Dupont and give them the serial number on the bottom, they can tell you without question if it is real or not. The script S T Dupont looks way off to my eye. Just for the record though: The font stamp under the lighter is not what I am used to seeing on any Dupont I have ever come into contact with. Used Ligne 1 lighters are fairly abundant and not really worth much on the open market, but it is probably worth more than what you paid for it. The Ligne 1 editions are the entry level into the ST Dupont lighter line up. I would be willing to bet it is only plated and not solid. This forum has been very responsive and helpful. I have an acid gold testing kit but I'm afraid to put any directly on the surface and risk any damage. Any way to test it without fuel? Just curious what you mean $-wise by 'low' resale? It feels pretty hefty weight-wise.

The lighter is gold in color with black inlay but It isn't marked with any metal content such as K (karat). It also looks as if it has been used pretty well. You don't have any papers or boxes with it.Īnd since it's a combo laquer and gold (I am assuming gold) and not full gold, it's weight in gold value is decreased. I have never seen a slotted fuel cap on a fake However, for resale value it's going to be very low. Vintage Ligne 1 Dupont's are rarely if ever faked 3. The stamping of the letters is a bit crooked as it should be for a vintage Linge 1. If so, I am going to go out on a limb and say it's real based on a few things: 1. I can't really tell from the pics, but is this a gold lighter? Fake serial numbers: one widely-used is 4FK12J8.
