Although not definitive, I don't like the appearance of the hand-written ink. It does not look contemporary. Definitely worth researching only one of the serial numbers to see if the set is legitimate.

Agreed - "Pasha" would know about the writing, but even - or especially - the numbers look too modern.

Sergio,

OK. To add one more opinion. I don't feel comfortable with the appearance of the written name in the Orders Booklet. The ink seems weak, washed out, hand writing is not even or smooth. Everything looks...new.

Of course please keep in mind this opinion comes from someone who just got stung last month on a small Red Star group. In retrospect all the flags of a forgery and fake were present. I just didn't look close enough. Hope I'm wrong and it turns out good.:)

Thank you, folks, I agree that this group is a nogo. I think I have been collecting quite some garbage in the past few weeks...:(

You may want to think about finding different sources. Hopefully you've been covered for refunds etc..

I still have some to submit to your opinion. This is ORS 1282913 which I have received with a document. I do not have the other awards which are listed.
Looking forward to read your opinions,
