Andrew,
The medal is fake. The pictures are very small, but from what I can see the rim is narrow, soldier is wrong, and most important the enamel is not glass.

Okay, I'd like to revisit this. Here is another picture of the medal. Are you sure it is fake? How do you know the enamel is not glass? What is wrong about the soldier? I need some specifics, not just generalizations. Thanks! :-)

Here are some larger images:

Auke,

Hard to tell, but probably bad.

Auke,

In all honesty, not much. As far as I can tell, the grass doesn't have the detail it should.

Hi, i know the scans as horrible as they can get but my attention was on document.
What you guys think does the doc make any sense.
