A friend of mine bought this Ushakov medal. From the first sight it looks very good.

The star looks good and the branch leaves in the lower part looks also very good.
It has 84 dots around the medallion.

But the medal is very very thin, compared to other original medals.
It has a thickness of 2,17mm compared to 2,58-2,70-2,74 of original medals.
So the weight is very low of the medal. 26,9 gram (without suspension) compared to originals with 32,6 gr, 31,8 gr. 32,4 gr.

The other measurement of the medal are: high 48,75mm and wide 35,85mm

thanks and best regards
Andreas

Re: Fake Ushakov Medals

and the document. Ink has a strange colour and the stamp is very very weak.
