Re: Fake Distinguished Military Service Medals
Hello. Reading the previous posts on mintmark and holders, I am I bit suspicious with a pair of medals coming from Greece. I will start with the second class, please have a look. I will post the first class in the next hours.
thanks sergio |

Re: Fake Medals "For Distinction In Military Service".
...and now, pictures of the first class (this one is a hard subject, too shiny..., I did what I could!). Thank you in advance for your opinions.
ciao sergio |

Re: Fake Medals "For Distinction In Military Service".
I think it would be useful help colleagues with perfect timing, when must buy ...
From my side I can say they are both ok, even if they seem very new, only the nut of the second class is incorrect. |

Re: Fake Medals "For Distinction In Military Service".
I personally can't tell one way or the other, not from these pictures ...

Re: Fake Medals "For Distinction In Military Service".
Nice to read from you again, Alexei! I tried to take picture at the best of my possibilities. What type of images would you need in particular? Maybe I will be able to get them.
Thanks, sergio |

Re: Fake Medals "For Distinction In Military Service".
Thanks, it's great to finally have some time for the Forum!
Because of the lacquer these are very hard to photograph in detail, so I've pretty much given up on them. Please do your best with the medallion and the mint mark. Alexei |

Well, with the 100k limit, it's not easy to post good scans of such difficult medals. I have tried with hi-res scans of the medallion, both for the 1st and 2nd class, the detail of the mintmark is from the second class.
The mintmark of the first class is tough. Here some scans with illumination from a different angle. I hope it helps. |
