I would say the second one is authentic going off the original Les Leston ads for that wheel and the first one looks a pretty poor attempt to copy it !

I totally agree with Pete,

Image 2 is obviously a real one, as you can see the raised areas around the lettering where it was stamped, image 1 looks like it has been engraved, as Pete says not very well.
