New Wak, Signature Gimei?

[Taz575]

Purchased a Wakizashi online today because I liked the hamon on it (I Know, I'm a Hamon Junky!)  Yes, I got it knowing it may be gimei because I liked the hamon pics! 

 

It is listed as Bicchu no kami Tachibana Yasuhiro, but I have some doubts from when I was comparing the mei from other swords to this one.  Placement looks OK, but it's that third character down from the top.

 

 

On the 3rd character from the top, the leg on the left goes out instead of going in towards the vertical stroke in the middle.  Anything else to show its a gimei signature?

Other side of the tang, no chrysanthemum:

 

 

Overall shot:

 

And the crazy Hamon that gets me every time!

Take a look at the sharp, crisp inscriptions of these papered Yasuhiro swords and compare. It doesn't look good for your sword, I'm afraid.

Yeah, those look deeper and crisper!
