I've had 3 Pennies gone through my hands before, so I'm not a real expert on these. This on is for sale locally, but there is something weird about it, it looks real but there is something thowing me off, specially that serial (at least the last 2 numbers, oh, and lenses ar enot oem obviously). Let me know what you think
Thanks

In general, they look legit. But what looks like a kink on the ear stem between digits 5 and 7 should not be there. Hopefully it’s just discoloration. Pins don’t look super healthy either. I’d go check them out.

I have seen that in a lot of Pennys and some Juliets as well. I know it's a Laser engraved # but it looks like they used a stamp with the same first few numbers and rotated the last 2-3.
 
Looks good to me. Like others have said, the pictures could be of higher quality. You might want to message the seller and see if he/she can provide better quality and or additonal photos. The curve of the arms look good for being genuine. I just won a bid on some Pennys on ebay and I’m a bit nervous about their authenticity. ~Always a concern with X-Metals. I plan to ship them out to the X-Man for a tuneup before joining my collection. Can’t recommend his work enough. He did an amazing, bordering on magic, job with my current pair of Pennys.
