Buying Privileges - OK
The top five are what appears to be the oldest versions, being light gray, light
bluish gray, and chrome plates - which match up with part #23306 as they have
no line/ring on the bottom of the hilt.

The middle five have the ring and the top of said ring is rounded - matching
these up with part #64567.

The bottom five have a line/ring, but the top of that line/ring is not rounded
like the five above them. So, I’m not sure what number to group these under.
Does this mean that there is a third variation that’s not listed on rebrickable
or bricklink or these are just variations on 64567?

These are "Chrome" hilts before they have been chromed. (All Chromed
parts are molded slightly smaller since they have to account for the chrome thickness
to still meet the same final size tolerance.)
