Help, Never seen this Griswold logo

3 Attachment(s)

These were posted today on the CIC page on facebook. We are trying to figure out what exactly this lady found in her barn. I know the lid probably does not belong with this DO but am not sure the DO base is really even Griswold. The logo is way off! Opinions welcome! Thank you for your help!

Kind of looks like someone, somewhere (China, perhaps?) took a BSR dutch oven for a pattern and made a Griswold counterfeit. And a not very good one.

The base is counterfeit, fake, newer, probably Chinese.

Thanks! That is what we were thinking but needed reinforcements on the opinion as I am not an expert! Thanks for your help.
