Here are more scans as requested.
I got the reverse ones in hope that H&S shows better. Thanks again for all the replies. |

Nexorcist,
Thanks. I still can't see the detail I want to see, but at least it doesn't look bad. Alexei |

Guys,
No big secret - fakes never get the H&S handle and certain details in the branch on the reverse right. Alexei Quote:

Jens,
There are some very good fakes of this medal, so better scans are needed. Looking at the ring, my gut feeling says bad, but ... Alexei |

Ok, then I`ll let it go.
Crazy that some people are willing to pay 200,- bucks for this one; not realizing that it is a fake... Jens |
