Zippo lighters distinguish between true and false:

At present, there are many fake Zippo lighters on the market, and there are many ways to distinguish them. First look at the appearance. There are circular intaglios on the joints of real Zippo lighters. It is really difficult for the two circular marks of the pressing blade on the casing to be exactly the same on the copying machine, which can also be used as a basis for judgment.

1932- 1956 is written in block letters; 1957- 1976 is written in italics; Since 1977, the trademark modeling of flame pattern has been used. In addition, starting from 1957, the base of ZIPPO lighters is engraved with a mark representing the year of manufacture, which is convenient for collectors to identify. Before that, products could only be judged by S number or design type.

There are four marks representing the year of manufacture, namely [] (from 1957), [|] (from 1966- 1973) and [/] (from1974-1983). Each sign is used for 8 years. There are at most eight of these marks, which are engraved on the left and right sides of the ZIPPO trademark (that is, each mark has at most four marks). However, with the method of decreasing year by year, at least 1 remains.

From the appearance, there is a circular concave print on the top and bottom of the joint of a real Zippo lighter, and the two circular marks on the pressing blade on the shell are really difficult to be exactly the same on the copying machine, which can also be used as a basis for judgment. Real Zippo lighters have a year of manufacture on the bottom.

Since 1986, in addition to the year, the month mark has been added. On the right side of the trademark, Roman numerals indicate the year of manufacture (II stands for 86 years, III stands for 87 years, and IV stands for 88 years); The English letters on the left represent the manufacturing month (A stands for 1 month, B stands for February, and C stands for March). Among the above features, fake Zippo lighters are generally absent or incomplete, and the printing is also very rough. Performance, quality and appearance are not comparable to real Zippo.
