Is this rear spoiler original or repro?

I took this off my 71 442 convertible back in the 90's. Trying to put a fair value on it during next weeks OCA swap meet.

Ali, I thought the originals had 3 studs.

Not sure if it's real or not, however it is not correct for a convertible. Rear spoilers were only available on hardtop cars from the factory.

It looks original to me just missing the center stud.

I agree with Fred. Here's a picture of the base on one I pulled from a dead Rallye350 back in the mid-1980's. It looks the same to me. John
