Number and sickle
The number looks a bit strange, and the hammer and sickle is a bit bent, I think its ok however.

Chris,
It's perfectly genuine and it's not unusual to see those H&S bent like this. Alexei |

Rusty,
It's just the unusual color patina. They don't fake this variation, the gold is too expensive. Alexei |

look like perfectly genuine...If you're a bit paranoid, weight them and check the gold, it must be 14k (583/1000): it must resist to acid for 10-12k and disapear for acid at 18k (I have the jeweler acid kit).

Majorpayne,
They don't fake these variations yet, but I have seen one piece with gold "sunburst" replaced with brass replica. As Charlet said, yours are perfectly genuine. Alexei |

Order of the Patriotic War, 1985 issue
I've got two informations regarding the material used for the 1985 issue. One source talks about silver-plated metal and the other of real silver (sterling). Are these really made from real silver/gold-plated silver (1st class)? Thanks for any replies!
