I need your opinion
I was e-mailed by the owner of "World of Medals". I have bought a few Umalarovas from him. Lately I've been hearing that he has been passing of fakes for the real deal. This group was offered for $95 USD. I think that it was put together. What do you think?
Victory over Japan Medal - Bravery Medal, silver - Long Service in the Soviet Armed Forces Medal, for 10 years Service, 3rd class - Long Service in the Soviet Armed Forces Medal, for 15 years Service, 2nd class - Long Service in the Soviet Armed Forces Medal, for 20 years Service, 1st class - Veteran of Armed Forces Medal Best, Doc |

And the Veteran medal should be before the Good Service medals...

Doc,
Unless you have the documents to go with it, or the Military Merit medal is numbered and you research it, there is no way to know for sure. The order in which the medals are hung may be a hint, but I would not necessarily disregard a group simply because the medals are not hung as per regulations. I have seen (and owned) genuine groups which were not complying fully with the regulations. Marc |

Thanks Guys!!! Without documents I'll have to pass on this one. My gut (and you) have settled the question. Besides, he's started to get a bad reputation according to another forum.
Best, Doc |
