I've never seen anything like the pattern in photo, and I would suspect that it must be a photo artifact of reflection from something actually minute...?
They certainly look right, hollow with slots, but I'd have to dig in the basement for known oldies to compare in detail. I think there have been at least two recent hollow offerings, and I have no idea about appearance or quality of those.
They look nice...as with all above, an ongoing supply seems very odd. They have been scarce for decades with nothing but the solid ones easily available for a long time.
