Re: FAKE XX anniversary.
Dsc,
This medal is an obvious fake: shape of the ring, enamel, bumps on the rays, poorly defined edge, lack of details on the reverse (grass, soldier, etc). Most likely a cast fake; I even doubt if it is struck in silver, from the look of it. Marc |

Fake 40th Anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War
You can clearly see the traces of the erased inscription.
The seller, however, states : "RARE Soviet Russian USSR medal: 40th Anniversary Victory in GPW - FOREIGN Variaton"

Re: Fake 40th Anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War
Well, I guess it was a matter of time. I assume we will see the same with 100th anniversary of V.I. Lenin and the 30th anniversary of Victory.

I can understand the whys and hows of it, I just don't get why they did such a half-assed job of it. I wonder how many will fall for that?
