Is it a Hans Wegner...
 

Is it a Hans Wegner CH30 or not? Because no name on it only a number?

I bought recently 4 chairs and think they are from Hans Wegner (CH30) but strangely enough they are not stamped with Hans Wegner and Hansen sign. Does anybody know if they are maybe fake or not? Because I am not aware of any fakes of this model.
The chairs have an oak frame and teak back. They are once re-upholstered the owner told me.
There a also 4 wholes in the seating to let the air out from the seating. The newer models don't have that I think.
Thank you in advance for your answers.

@ddj Could you post some more photos? Like frontal and from the side? Maybe some details?

Just looking at a few other Wegner for Carl Hansen chairs online, it appears they went from the ink stamp to a sticker at some point.  Also, both of these examples have the same form of two-letter, two-digit code on the bottom as yours.  If quality and dimensions all seem right, I'd take this as a a pretty strong clue they are probably legit chairs that lost their stickers.
