Jens,

One is free to believe in what they want. I personally do not base my appraisal of genuineness on acquisition date.

Construction of the Baikal-Amur railroad

Hello,

I was wondering if there are (good quality) fakes of the Baikal-Amur railroad medal? There's one on an auction site going dirt cheap with a Veteran of the Soviet Armed Forces, Combat Service and random medals with wrong ribbons. Just wondering if the seller is ignorant of the medal's value or pulling my leg?

Greets,
Stah

Medal for Development of Virgin Lands

These are the best pics I can get at the moment. Thoughts on this one:confused: Could this be a variation 2 because of the ring?

Brendan,

That is definitely a Type 1, if genuine (which I can't tell from these pictures).

Yes, I agree Marc. I pulled out the big Red Book and it looks good. As soon as it comes in I'll scan it and post the pics.

Re: Fake Restoration, Construction and Development Medals

"We're selling here some of rare Soviet Russian awards that belongs to our friend. He's the great collector of Soviet Russian medals.

He collected it for long time and carefully kept it, then he decide to sell it because he need some money now.

Up for auction the rare original Soviet Russian medal "FOR RESTORATION OF USSR's SOUTH"

Good condition, no reserve! The real piece of Russian history."

Re: Fake Restoration, Construction and Development Medals

Other medals he sells doesn't look too good, i usually pass on sellers even if they have 1 or 2 medals that look suspicious.
My 2 cents.
