Re: Fake Mother-Heroine Medal

Amazing how confusing it was and when you posted your explanation it was OBVIOUS!! This award was purchased in 1995, just as a side note.

Re: Fake Mother-Heroine Medal

Well, as soon as the SSSR fell, people were breaking into HSU, HSL and Mother Heroines's houses to get that gold and sell it.

Actually, many recipients were forced to sell their awards (or, sometimes, part of them) in order to provide food to their families. Such were the times...

Re: Fake Mother-Heroine Medal

Sad times indeed...

But why didn't they melt the socket of the Mother Heroine too?
