I don’t like when awards is cleaned of a patina. In such cases I say that the subject has been deprived of a "passport" - the document confirming a long-standing origin.
This is the same medal before the transformation. IMHO, previously was much better. :(

I see... Just the eugen1308 who has placed photos "before" and "after" at another forum, lives in Cologne, too. I thought maybe you know him.

Re: Fake "Liberation of" Campaign Medals

Please, I need some opinions about this Praga Liberation Medal. Seems to me it's a Type 1 medal, but I'd like to know if this kolodka is original from this medal?



Regards,

Ricardo

Re: Fake "Liberation of" Campaign Medals

Hello, folks!
Still searching for a cheap Belgrad, I found this one on sale. I have a good impression of the seller, who usually offers good original stuff. What's your opinion?

Thank you
sergio

Sergio, to me, nothing sticks out as bad. I hope some other members can confirm and you can finally get your Belgrade!
