Re: Fake Voroshilov Marksman Badge

Good evening guys :)
I have four badges, two normal and one small,
and even a simple shooter.
According to you there is something good?

Marsino,

Right badge in your first set (dark patina) is :thumbsdown
I like all the other ones.

Re: Fake Voroshilov Marksman Badge

Thanks Marc, :)
I suspected, but I'm not complaining I'm very happy for the other three.
Small badges unfortunately do not have the screwbacks.

Re: Fake Voroshilov Marksman Badge

I don't like any of them. Sloppy enamel and unnatural brush bronze look to the obverse w/ lots of fake black patina on back imho.

No, only one of the four badges shown by Marsino is fake, the other three are nice originals.

dav,
Sorry, but I did not understand :confused:
You do not like any of the four?
Or you agree with Lapa?

Marsino,

Dave did not like any of them and thought that all 4 are fake.

Marsino,

Please re-read my posts about your badges :mad:
IMO, one is bad and three are genuine.
