This is supposed to be a replica of Galileo's telescope, except that it
doesn't look anything like the original, is made of brass, and contains
a roof prism to invert the image. Also, the lenses are coated and larger
than Galileo's scopes. Here's the really funny part:

It doesn't claim that it is the replica of Galileo's telescope. It has the
story about Galileo on a brass plate mounted inside wooden box . To me
there is huge difference between these two as wide as Cassini division.
