This one is difficult considering the nature of the pen and the material being signed -- many of the details I look for are obscured. That could be intentional, or an honest coincidence. There are some characteristics that look good, and others that don't. I don't believe there's a way to give a thorough assessment on something like this. In these instances, provenance and chain of custody matter a lot.

This is one of those that must be examined in-person.

if I had to make a decision based solely on the photo, it would be no
