Is it just me but the positioning of the swastika and Wk Nr (and their size) make this a bit suspect?

I do have a close up of the tail of the Bf109-G6 from NASM, stripped of paint so it is very clear where the rivets and screws are. I just don't know how to post images on this site.

I will say that this 440004 is pretty close but if I could post the image that I have, then all can see and make their comments.
