Ruiz, besides not being an expert, I like your medal :thumbsup
I hope that more opinions will come soon.

Here is a first class. How do you like it? :confused:
Thank you.

Hi Marsino,

very difficult to say ... these ones are faked heavily and in better quality than ever these days. A good hint may be to take a closer look at the outer rim. If it is even and has the same thickness everywhere, there is a high chance that it is genuine.

With best regards!

E.g.: at the first glance it looks convincing, but nowadays I usually work with a microscope. Concerning the extensive use of coining equipment of modern fakers, nothing can be said by just taking a look at an (even good) image :(

I like it but I have to agree with shocktrooper.

Just for my learning experience: where do you actually look for through a microscope?

Guys, thanks for answers,
but seems to be a fake "Capral", almost perfect, but looking good, there are differences...

Well spoted! I checked mine and indeed they are different than the first one you've shown.

Another Capral fake.

HI,

i just found this and i would like your apreciation.

It looks like a original specimen of a Partisan medal 1st class, with original suspension.

The details look very sharp, the ring (i think) is correctly soldered, and the border relief and letters are simetrical.

But, a second opinion is always welcome.

What do you, fellow collectors, think???

Any thoughts on this partisan?

Thnx!

USSR · 06-13-2013, 08:43 AM

Thanks guys!

And what about this one? It is very worn and polished but I don't see any problems with it...

Weight: 16,08 gram
Diameter: 32,14 mm

Any opinion? Plz :thumbsup
