Another "I have these for many years" story.:) (Not for the one pictured here though.)
Somebody went to the trouble of forging these, of that I am sure mainly because the handwriting on both 1st and 2nd class versions of the Excellent Border Guard badge is identical - too identical.:rolleyes:
I recently acquired a real ID for a 2nd class (the green one). I've seen these in white as well. And though the hardcover documents were forged, I do believe they were real blanks.
Which brings up the question: How many versions of these documents are out there and is this a common phenomenom with award documents?
I've seen temporary or field versions for other awards, but this is the first time I've seen a hardcover version that came along after a paper version was the norm. (At least I think it's the first time.:D)

First the REAL one.
