Hi Count, Hope you get your pieces Count and they are the real thing.....they do have a very characteristic look, so it should not be a problem when you see them....having mine in hand now makes it much easier.....and mine was from a reliable and respected source.
I know there will be definitely larger pieces around....more than 100gs. Post from Russia is the most worrying aspect though.
