The Carbon - +Red Penny was not a "one of a kind prototype", it was a genuine product made by Oakley with a factory finish Carbon frame, and likewise +Red lens. It had a labelled standard box in the style of those huney monkey or total_o pieces that were sold on ebay many years ago. The boxes were not the two part X Metal boxes but the black ones used for models of the late 1990's and early 2000's. The people I know of who have/had TRUE Carbon - +Red Penny include Rick Fawcett who's pair sold on ebay way back and had the original box, Nike Nickel owns a few genuine Carbon frame Penny, and the pair I sold on ebay recently came from Anton Sy, perhaps the most impressive collector of Oakley the world over. Jerrod Felix is also alleged to have an official pair. From what I was told there were 100 Carbon Penny made, but only a handful have come to light on the market since it's production. They did not have a sku or serial number and were not commercially available, the precise reason for production eludes me although the aforementioned ebay sellers did have them available for a limited time. There will be doubters of course, and this will apply to numerous 'beyond rare' items that are practically never seen or are near unheard of.
Not alleged, fact.
