The Monetny dvor made Orders of the partisan star 3. class are sold from 60$ to 250$ here in EX - Yugoslavia, it depends on the serial number, and if it's boxed or documented. A full set should be about 250$, while an ordinary piece without doc or box should cost you no more than 60 to 70$.
I've never seen or heard about any fakes of these 3. classes. The market is overflown with originals anyway. 10 000 3. classes were awarded, but there were at least 20 000 soviet made, and unnisued pieces are still beeing found in large batches... Also there are not that many people collecting this stuff.
I've seen a few fakes of the 1. class but, they were so bad, that they were instantly recognisable. I also saw one suspicious 2. class piece once, but I'm still not sure if it was a fake or just a late, very badly made yugoslav IKOM original.
This is my order of the partisan star 3. class sn. 4610 with original case of issue. Unlike the orders itself, the cases are extremly rare. Don't know why though, as there are enough of orders arround. It seems that those cases that were issued were later lost, and the cases of the orders that were kept unissued, had been also thrown away, since there's a lot of unnisued partisan stars 3. class but not a single one has the case.
