Hello. I have a Nakhimov medal that I purchased 10 years ago. From what I have been reading here I am pretty sure it is fake but I wanted to get your opinion. The medal is 3.5 mm across and 2.5 mm thick.

I hope these are better images. I am limited by my camera.

Lennep,

Sorry, but :thumbsdown

I can't tell if these are real or not...to the novice (me) they look good...please help! Also, if they are not good, could you tell me why and what to look for in the future?

It is either 6006 or 9009...

Better pics have been requested and should be forthcoming.

My gut says bad on this one. But my gut has a tendency to be wrong!

Cheers,

Tom

@Tommy:

VERY difficult so say; I cannot recognize the fingerprint or something else, that could be useful...

Mysteriously, the seller vanished. Surprise, Surprise!

I already hate myself for posting these crappy pics, but here goes. Different seller and "more are on the way"

Ill post them as soon as i get a reply. Any instant no-no's?

Cheers,

Tom


****EDIT****

Far too many dots around the edges. Must be bad.

Just for the sake of completeness, here are other pics the seller sent. Not perfect, but better. Shame.
