Default Yankee trunk

Hey guys,

I was going to bid on this but asked a collecting buddy as well as did some research and I am thinking it is a prop/fake. Any thoughts? I really want one of these... so cool!

listing:

The one below I believe to be authentic as it is the same as a fellow collector's..

Differences: locks, handles, how it was put together, stenciling, inside of this one is wood. My friends is metal. Paint looks goo though.. too good Could it be possble that this one is real too? I lean to no... I am in the market so am looking for an expert's advise on this. Anyone...?
