Fake "Defence Of" Campaign Medal Documents.
Brendan,

Difficult to say much from this picture. it looks OK, but that's about it. How is the front looking?

I once got a fake Kiev document, it was overall of good quality, but the printing was a bit off (no indentation due to the printing process).

the document itself appears good. Indentation from printing on a platen press from the type and numbers.

I guess my biggest concern is the stamp as it's not definitive.

Hi Brendan,

These late ones can be difficult (almost 30 years after the original issue on 21 June, 1961) - particularly this one because of the lack of a good stamp. The writing looks like biro but that is OK for one issued in 1990's. However, it could have been done yesterday - get a blank document and fill it in to make it interesting.

In other words as Marc says the document looks OK but the writing - well who knows????????????

From a trusted seller?

These didn't make it into the feed, given the titles. Only about 13 hours left, but curious about the opinions of those who know docs. (My worthless opinion is that they're in terrible shape, and that's "evidence" of authenticity... which is why I never buy paper from someone I don't know! :rolleyes:)

Don't want to break the rules on posting e**y auction stuff, so no link. Check out the pics and item numbers (there are more pics at the respective auctions):

Here is my defense of sevastopol certificate. Il looks very suspicious to me, for instance in the pattern of the red letters and the lack of sharpness for all letters in the text. What is your opinion? Thank you.
