Probably exact copies: I just prefer using originals if possible. Personally, I think the really old brass was better stuff than today’s brass. I cannot prove this, but even after both are polished I think the old brass has a different shade to it. Again, can’t prove a thing, just my preference. I will resort to repops if necessary, however.
