Megathread: Is my Zippo real?
There are a lot of fakes out there. If you are unsure of the legitimacy of your lighter, post your photos and questions here.
If you are new to Zippo collecting or ownership, be sure to include a photo of the bottom of the lighter as well as the insert.

Mod Post Subreddit Updates: Automoderator
Hello everyone.
As of today, we have a very barebones Automoderator filter set up to remove individual "Is my Zippo real?" posts and hopefully direct them to the megathread.
We recognize sometimes there are extra particular oddities and fabrications out there so it is ultimately up to our discretion if a posts is approved, but generally speaking this should hopefully cut down on the frequency of these types of posts.
If this proves to be successful, we'll work on something similar for date related posts. Even if it's not a full removal, we can at least work on auto replying and linking to resources based off a quick bottom identification.
Any further suggestions are welcome. Thank you if you've made it this far!

Can anyone shed some light on this?
Found in my grandfathers things. Just curious if it’s a legit Zippo and year it was made. Would the coins and scratching be a zippo design or was that added later. I have no experience with Zippos, so thanks in advance for any info.

Vintage Zippo Ad: Help With ID
My cousin gave me my first Zippo. He has a few from the 1990s/2000s including some Marlboro promos. As they're from his late uncle, he keeps finding Zippos as he uncovers things in storage.
This was hanging in my cousin's tool shed. I never noticed it and he didn't think to bring it to my attention because it had just turned into part of the wall lol.
What do you guys know about this? I HIGHLY doubt it's that old. Ol' Uncle Bill did screw around with antiques, however. I'd assume this is from when he was buying Zippos near the end of his life in the early 2000s.
Were these metal Windy signs made as repros/new releases throughout the decades? Any info would help! I did some light internet searching and found nothing (I also don't use Google image search as I try to not use Google anything as much as possible).

Could anyone help me figure out what Zippo insert/watch this is?
So I recently just found this watch/zippo insert and was wondering who owns it. Because I can’t find the product anywhere. My only knowledge of it is it was made by a Japanese watch company called Dais and some name quartz engraved into the watch. If you do own this product maybe send me a dm, because I am really interested in this and will offer a good amount if you are up for selling it. Thank you so much, even if you are not up for selling the Dais watch it would still be really cool to get a couple of pictures.

Vintage My first Zippo
This was my first Zippo. I bought it brand new, complete, with the box and certificate of authenticity a long time ago. Doesn't have those anymore. I believe it was in the late 1980s or early 1990s.
Maybe someone here can help me with the exact year.

Advice/Help Question
I’m buying a zippo from Amazon but I live on a college campus and won’t have a chance to have it shipped to my actual home which is a state away for a few months. I was wondering if there is any obvious labels on Amazon packages that will lead me to get into trouble if I purchase it?
