Re: Fake Preservation of Public Order Medals

Hi,
What do you think about this one? I have doubt about the loop and about the writings...

I like it. Nickel-copper. The ring and letters looks ordinary to me.

I got my scale today and it weights 16,27 g

Btw, the silver test solution says it is not made of silver.

USSR,

There was no need to test the medal, the weight gave you ample indication that it is not made out of silver :mad:

Now, do you plan to drill the HSL star just to check if the metal is the same to the core :laff

Re: Fake Preservation of Public Order Medals

Ruiz,

Somehow, I don't feel too comfortable with this medal. Can you get better pictures? Also, can you double check on the weight and ensure that it is of the medallion alone.
