Recently a star was offered on our favorite auction site in that range. My question is, not owning one from that range but noticing the photos Alex has, the dimple on the reverse under the H&S didn't start showing up until after 100,000 right?
Anyone seen one MUCH earlier than that?

Hello,
According to data that was posted some time ago (this specific info seems to have disappeared now, but I have a printout) on Alex Filer's site (I guess I can't post hist URL since there is a marketplace there now) all the Red Stars before 261059 had flat Hammer/Sickle area on reverse. More precisely, he observed concave H/S area in the ranges: 261059 -761519 small star flat edges flat reverse concave H/S small MM below arm curved up MM italic SN 476090-1148972 large star flared edges flat reverse concave H/S small MM below arm straight MM italic SN 1067928-2587644 small star flared edges flat reverse concave H/S large MM below arm straight MM italic SN 1153487-1329763 large star flared edges flat reverse slightly concave H/S large MM below arm straight MM italic SN 1031661-1546817 large star flared edges flat reverse concave H/S large MM below arm straight MM italic SN All other Red Stars were "flat" according to his info.

From my observations - the order was (is) fake.
The size of Monetniy Dvor and location of the serial number is incorrect.

Guys,
When asking questions about a specific fake, why don't you post some scan, so all those who are interested can get the pictures in addition to the sound only version. Marc

Hi every body
If you are talking about #9286 on favorite site it is 100% fake

Well, $720 is a nice price for something that didn't correspond to known features of that range.
Hey, I'm not going to call it a fake, I "got into trouble" for that recently. I just wanted to ask the question since "I" had never seen one that low with a dimple. Oh, well, that is what this forum is for.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding your cryptic statement. The only way you could was if you were asked to back up your claim with facts. Facts which support an argument regarding authentication should always be included in your initial post anyways.

I think he means the seller that was slighted. |
