Re: Fake Orders of the Great Patriotic War 2nd Class

Hello Gentlemen,

I would like to read your opinions on this second class OGPW, T2 of the most recent production (s/n 968404, might be awarded in the sixties?).

Thank you

Enamel cracked at 12 o'clock?
Sergei
PS that's me being smart :( but there is aso something on the white enamel, like a dent. Not sure about the rivet, could be just the angle of viewing.

Re: Fake Orders of the Great Patriotic War 2nd Class

Sergio,

Your order is :thumbsup

There are indeed all chances that it might be awarded in the 60's, and even more likely in the 70's since it was manufactured in 1968 at the Moscow Mint.

Re: Fake Orders of the Great Patriotic War 2nd Class

Thank you, Marc and Sergei. As noted, there are some scratches in the enamel. The rivets, as far as I could see, are good.

cheers

Re: Fake Orders of the Great Patriotic War 2nd Class

A new question: was it true, or just too good to be true?
Seen in an auction in Germany, just ended.

ciao

What's wrong with it? I am not a big expert though.

The s/n on this one is a bit low - any explanation?
Thanks,
Sergei
