Point of information:
The headshell you have for sale is an SME S2, not an S2-R. The S2-R has a captive fingerlift and is heavier; being pressed from thicker material.

Also I believe genuine SME headshell screws are black and not Philips Crosshead

The screws were probably changed over time, but the headshell is a genuine SME because it was supplied with my SME tonearm.

A genuine SME S2R headhell has two alignment pins, as well as the features I mention above. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/323227563543?rmvSB=true
I can understand the confusion: the website you link to has used the designation "R" to distinguish between the earlier headshell with a raised SME logo label with the later version sporting a flat label with the letters SME written in the current font.
Anyway interested buyers can see what it is you are selling. Good luck with the sale.
