I do not have this variant,
but I was particularly interested in the first, which is included in the price.

PS
Thanks again ph3s :thumbsup

Re: Fake Academy Badges

Marsino,

Something does not add up here. The second badge, although early, is much less valuable than the first one that you showed, and even more so with its damaged enamel. Strange that this latter one would be thrown-in as a freebe...

Marc,

I asked the couple, because they know enough about the seller Balkan
I can take only the first.

Re: Fake Academy Badges

I am mostly guessing here, but based on the enamel I would say that the artillery school badge is bad, and the MGU is probably genuine. As Marc has mentioned, better pictures are needed.

Re: Fake Academy Badges

I am sorry, but these are not really that much better.

Alexei

P.S. I still don't like the badge.
