Re: Fake Medals for Combat Service
Wagner,
I concur with Lauri, the medal itself is original, but the SN is not. Marc |

Re: Fake Medals for Combat Service
Hallo.
Here is my suspicious Combat Service medal. I have noticed that it is significantly thinner then others I have (~0.3mm). I hope these scans will help to draw some conclusion about this item. Thank you sergio |

In that SN range, your medal should be approximately 2.7mm thick (earlier ones were 3mm thick), so everything is fine here. I concur with Lauri regarding the suspension and the screwplate; I believe that they are fakes. Marc |

Ade,
I am fairly certain that the suspension is a fake. Marc |

Re: Fake Medals for Combat Service
Yes, it is a fake as clearly evidenced by the edge.

Re: Fake Medals for Combat Service
sergio, medals with these higher serial numbers are thinner. That is correct.
