I would also say nothing too obvious about the medallion is wrong BUT the brand new ribbon is indicative of fakes of this Medal. You (and anyone else) are very correct to be cautious.

I like what I see.

best regards

Here is another Belgrad I'm in love with.
Is it good or bad? I can't understand the bright spot at 6 o'clok on the reverse: looks like a repair, correct?

Thank you
sergio

I do not want to influence your ideas, I'm not good for this, but I like this medal.

I do not think it is a repair, it might be a stain, caused by prolonged contact with a liquid.

Concerning the stain, you might be quite right, marsino. Thank you very much for your opinion.

This is my last chance to grab a Belgrad before next fall. It looks ok to me, but I am keen to mistakes... What do you think? This medal seems available since long, but no one wants it... :rolleyes:
Thanks for your advice,
ciao

Personally the strange flaw highlighted doesn't fill me with confidence. The ring is out of place (which does happen) but it seems to have a strange angle to it and the solder also isn't very good. The reverse is very strange too.

I would follow the flow here and also avoid this.

I am unsure about this one.

Avers and reverse are out of angle.

But I can´t see any obviously problems.

best regards

What a beauty! :D

Yep!

The random splodges of metal between the letters on the obverse and ring that looks like it were carved from stone really do it for me!

Not to mention the out of place berries.

A real stunner!
