Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals

Ciao!

I would like to read your comments on this Budapest medal I've just received. It looks good to me (but I've already been cheated with this type of medal).

Thank you in advance
cheers
sergio

Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals

Two more scans: one with details of the hammer&sickle, the second showing the back side of the v1 Budapest (on the right) to be much less pitted than another Budapest (v.1A) of mine. Can it be explained as due to wear?

Thanks
sergio

Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals

Thank you Andreas, I am happy to get a positive opinion on my new Budapest!

On the other end, I am now considering to enter negotiation for a capture of Vienna on which I really would like to have an opinion. I hope that these poor scans will be sufficient to decide about thumbs up or down!

Thank you in advance
ciao
sergio

Looks good to me, except for the patina.

Thanks Alexei. I will try to ask better scans to the seller. It is expensive enough to regret the money if it is wasted.

cheers
