Fake Orders of Friendship of Peoples.

It is nicely made but I still think it is a fake. Hand engraved serial number, broken fingers and fake patina. Am I right? It is made of silver btw, I've tested it...

USSR--definitely a fake. Broken fingers is a good indicator, there are several more of course. :thumbsup

Cheers, George

Thanks George,

I will send it back to the person I bought it from for a refund. What else do you see isn't good?

Hi Guys,

what do you think about the piece on the left? An original piece on the right side for comparision. I saw a few Order of Friendship with strange engraved serial number.

best regards and thanks
Andreas

Andreas,

It's one of the two (if memory serves) handwriting styles, observed in this range.

Please have a look at this one ...
