It's tough to tell without looking at the casting from the back of the wheel. Repops have thicker fins though and my guess is this one is repop rather than real.

Compare yours with this original '66 KO

..... as your picture is not too clear. However, when I clicked "slideshow" then enlarge option, I got a half-screen size. I dunno, your fins don't look THAT wide (ie. repop), but if they have a fine machining surface to (run your fingernail over to detect) they're probably not original.

KH fins are 0.22" (7/32") wide. Also, as Bill S. has indicated, click on my following link to get a shot of the backside showing the "cartouche" with KH and D-49985) and the machining date of B_1_4_66 with bouncing stamp. This is probably one of a set of 5 wheels delivered new on 6S113162.
