Falsi? Fakes? Фуфел?

[airfix]

Unfortunately, Alvarez, it is our current reality, and has been for at least a couple of years already

Is it only with partisan medals?...

Unfortunately no, you can add Odessa and Sevastopol to the list.

Tanto per far riflettere, sul livello di falsificazione dei particolari, raggiunto oggi, guardate questa Stalingrado, viene addirittura venduta, senza inganno, come falso a meno di 10$, da il noto venditore Nikolayevic.

I agree with Marc, Odessa Sebastopol and Partisan, in worn condition, are almost impossible to distinguish from new generation of fakes.

Filo, probabilmente hai confuso la foto, la Caucaso che mostri non è di buon livello.

Non ho confuso proprio niente, mica siam tutti fenomeni, nel forum ci possono essere anche quelli alle prime armi.
Eppoi, se non fosse per la superficie con delle imperfezioni di fusione, i bassorilievi frontali e la scritta posteriore non sono niente male.
Rispondi ai miei quesiti in masterclass che è meglio...

[Regaleco]

Ma guarda che hai scritto Stalingrado, pensavo di riferissi ad un'altra medaglia. Mi preoccupa molto di più il livello delle Partigiane...

filo, hai scritto Stalingrado ma postato foto della Caucaso

Hoooops!

Hello everybody, a friend of mine is asking about that pilot hat. I have no idea about that kind of things so I would like to ask for your opinion. Is it original? Any other advise?

Thanks in advance

[Lapa]

Yes, it is the real thing, but in bad condition

[Alvarez]

Thank you very much Lapa.

It looks like a winter flight cap. Is it the same for fighter pilots and heavy bomber , I think….it´s true ?

[rocketscientist]

Hi folks! Have a look to this Defense of Sevastopol, please. I am not able to find anything wrong, nevertheless I have a bad feeling with this medal. Do you think it is artificially aged?
This seller starts worrying me...

Si tratta della variante senza il "brufolo", a mio parere, quella che mostri dovrebbe essere un fake, IMHO.

Hi!

I think that it´s good….opinions are welcome.
thanks

Ruiz,

The entries in the booklet look genuine, although I'd like to have a better look at the front page too.

I am much less convinced by the order itself. I believe that at least the back plate is a fake. Better detailed pictures of the OPW would help better understand what we are dealing with.

Marc

[ruiz]

These are the best photos that they sent me.

[Lapa]

Ruiz,

Assuming for a minute that the order is genuine (which I seriously doubt, at least for several parts of it), do you really need a piece that much damaged in your collection???

[ruiz]

The price is really very low. But I'm not going to buy it. Thank you Marc!!!!

[Alvarez]

For me the medal is good, but I would like to know your opinion. The last one is from mondvor.narod.

[Lapa]

[Alvarez]

Thank you Lapa.

Now al have another one but I don't like it. The picture of the first page doesn't look like original neither the writing of the military service medal.

The name of the veteran is Ноздрачев Прокофий Калинович and in podvignaroda only appears the red star.

Thanks in advance

[Lapa]

Alvarez,

Please post pictures of a size "slightly" larger than that of a postal stamp...

[komsomol]

The brand new photo doesn't give the feeling of a genuine one...

[Alvarez]

Jeje, sorry for the size of the pictures I posted from the smartphone.
