Alas, the author of those words died in 2002.  I guess he meant
"authentic" as in, the words were inscribed by a real Hebrew, not by a
prankster along the lines of Joseph Smith and his golden tablets. 

I would love to see a transliteration of the inscription into modern
Hebrew letters so I can compare it to the Hebrew bible.  Is anyone game?
How much would I have to pay?
