Rick Barrett has all the info you need on his website to tell if your
object is real or a reproduction. To bad mine is a repo.

Subject: Re: the object (original?)
all this talk made me dust off my object and take a peek. the base
says 217/1000, LED ZEPPELIN, PRESENCE, and the 1976 copyright.
always just assumed it was a replica as I bought it back in my
college days (early 90s) and can't imagine me having any real $$ to
shell out. are replicas out there with the same details? any tell
tale signs one way or the other?
the bad news is that it's a bit chipped. nothing too terrible but I
guess I shouldn't paint the bugger either.....
It is copyrighted by Swan Song. It's cast into the originals on the
topside of the base.
