re: All Other Medals
Hello Nota Bene,
Sorry I was not specific, I wrote in this section as I did find the medal suspicious because I could not find one that looked just like it. I will make sure to state my authenticity concerns more clearly next time. David |

re: All Other Medals
David,
Got it! It's a genuine piece, don't worry about it. I believe there are 20+ variations of this medal. Alexei |

Re: All Other Medals
Thanks desantnik and can you say if this is real too?
I have bought this labour medal for 5 US dollars. But is it real? the white in the suspension is almost grey and 5 dollars for a medal is too cheap. Regards Last edited by LuisMoutinho; 03-22-2009 at 06:51 AM. |

Re: All Other Medals
Hello and welcome.
I doubt there are fakes of the Labor Vet's medals since they awarded around 10 million of them. And getting that and the award booklet for $5 is a good deal! :) And the two Labor badges with cards to the same person are very very nice! Very nice collection so far.

Re: All Other Medals
In fact there are over 39,197,100 of these medals awarded, making it the most awarded medal ever. I have seen these sell with booklet for less than 2 USD on eBay.

Re: All Other Medals
Maybe so, but most certainly not with this type of document. It is the scarcer variety, issued by the Presidium of a Soviet Republic :rolleyes:
