Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals
I'm pretty confident of this medal already, but I'd like to have some expert opinions. Anyone? :)

Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals
Doesn look bad Stah. File marks on the ring look to prove the variation.

Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals
It also has the squashed top point of the star on the obverse that version 2 forms of this medal have.
The lack of signs of wear worries me slightly - unissued (or copy/fake)??? Simon |

Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals
Thanks for the opinions, guys! :)
The medal DOES seem a bit too shiny to be true, but that's only because I went and polished it before asking about authenticity... :o I'll post pre-clean pictures next time! |

Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals
Looks like the ring was repaired.

Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals
This the same Vienna medal I posted some time ago. I hope that these scans will be sufficient for a final verdict! :D (too late, it is in my hands, already)
Is it good? :confused: Thank you in advance. ciao sergio |
