Never having seen or handled the real thing, these look pretty authentic to me.
There is come casting flash inside the "crown" of the sombrero, and some of the edges are really sharp.
The chrome on the back is a little spotty and the argent portion feels like about 150 grit sandpaper. Hang it up on a pencil and tap it with a fingernail - it rings like a bronze bell. No scale handy, I'd guess about two pounds apiece.
Couldn't find the word "China" anywhere on the paperwork or on the casting, generally the quality seems quite good.
