Fake Border Guard Badge

Thanks for the info, Phillip! :thumbsup I'm glad this badge looks good! The price I got on it was exceptional.

Anytime Alex. I feels good to finally be able to use my specialized (albeit limited) knowledge to help.;)

I'm not trying to hijack your thread, but speaking of great prices on fairly rare older pieces, have a look at this beauty I just got in today. I met the seller on ePay, believe it or not, and he is quite a good guy. He is fully aware that he could have gotten three times what he asked me to pay, so I couldn't pass it up.

All-Union KGB issue 50th anniversary of the Soviet Border Guard badge - the mint managed to practically hide the LMD mark on the reverse (which unlike my previous piece, doesn't make a complete "loop" around the mark, but when compared to a known authentic one already in my collection, I believe it to be genuine).

As you must know Alex, it always feels good to make a great deal with someone who sells at great prices.:D
