If it is a reproduction they did a great deal of work to get matching decals on it. Most of the reproductions ones that I've seen have Chinese symbols on them. Seems like sometime back they had some without any gold.

If you look at https://cloud.tevildo.top/s/aMyoe2pPTeXAgbH/preview the belt guard and the hand crank have the same decals.

Another reason I believe is original hand crank is the wooden handle instead of plastic. Granted it is possible that someone could have managed to find decals to match and replace the plastic handle, but I sincerely doubt that is the case with this machine.
