   I read Paul T’s post on Thai fakes- no mention of button numbers, I think doc has been telling me all these years that 
Levi never had a 501 button number?

	Hey, I got these this week, and obviously there are so e facts, that don't go together. Has anyone see something similar? 1. These are obviously no unwashed STFs. 2. The quality overall looks poor (check the bartacks?!), but they seem legit 3. The silver barcode tag are just for Preshrunk, aren't they? 4. It has printed 552 as factory code on it, but button is 546. 5. STF were always 501xx in this period, just Preshrunk were 501 on patch? Looks like retagged, but why should this be? Btw, found them in Europe. Please help me :) http://imgur.com/a/WP2QFrM
