Re: Fake Preservation of Public Order Medals
Strange spotting, although I've seen a similar color on nickle plated medals like this (maybe the brass coming through), but as you can see from above, I am never absolutely certain about these or sometimes the border guard medals.

Re: Fake Preservation of Public Order Medals
Indeed, it looks poorly "cast". . .

Re: Fake Preservation of Public Order Medals
Guys,
I beg to differ from your above mentioned opinions. This medal is definitely not cast; it is struck, and what Marsino shows on his third picture happens to be a die break. Now, that being said, I believe that this is a 1993 issue/restrike, not one of the original ones. Marc |

Re: Fake Preservation of Public Order Medals
Thank you, Marc, I stand corrected. I think you are indeed correct in your assessment. It does look like a die crack now that you mention it. . .
