Re: Fake Orders of October Revolution
Looks to me like a nice Type 2 OOR

Re: Fake Orders of October Revolution
I don't like the golden paint(?) below the flag. Seems strange to me.

Re: Fake Orders of October Revolution
Bundtrock,
I have mixed feelings about this one, but I tend to think that it is OK. I have seen some sloppy gilding, but this is way over anything else I have encountered. Then again, if it was made on a Monday morning after a "difficult" weekend, why not. The writing on the banner seems to be slightly different, but it may be due to the angle at which the picture is taken and the enameling. If you can, please post a picture of the flag only, taken at 90 degrees from the surface. Marc |

Re: Fake Orders of October Revolution
I don't have the medal, it is up for sale and those are the only pics that are available. $350.
Thank you all very much for taking the time to respond. |

Re: Fake Orders of October Revolution
When in doubt, leave it out.
I'd leave it out. Plenty more of them out there that will leave you feeling easier.

Re: Fake Orders of October Revolution
I think that is a very good idea, I am going to pass on this one.
Thanks again everyone! |

Re: Fake Orders of October Revolution
Ok, gentlemen, let me rephrase that. There is nothing to indicate that this OOR didn't come out of a Soviet mint. How's that?

Re: Fake Orders of October Revolution
Hi,
the gilt looks very sloppily done indeed; otherwise this example seems to be 100% ok. Rivets, mint mark, serial number, enamel, wearing traces, etc. etc. look very convincing. Jens Last edited by Shocktrooper; 09-27-2012 at 04:41 AM. |

Re: Fake Orders of October Revolution
Just to warn fellow collectors - there are now some scarringly good fakes of the OR on the marked.
