Welcome to the Forum. What makes you think they are fakes? If there are any problems please post more detailed scans.

2 budapest

Alexei I am not sure that either are fake although the one with a rim the ring seems flattened alittle on the front side. my concern is which is more importatnt historically as that is the one which will go on display. I have determined that fortunately both collections are good with exception one Sevastopol is a fake according the thread on this forum a Warsaw and a Belgrade are variant 2 soon I hope to turn second set trade sell proceeds to go for a Alexander Nevskiy.

Ds photo,

In the Fakes section we only discuss fakes and suspicious items, so I have moved your posts here.

I don't know what collections you are talking about, I guess I must have missed something.

Historically and pricewise there is no difference between these two medals, they are just variations.

Alexei

This is a certificate for Budapesh Medal. Awarded on June 9, 1945 to comrade Saulkin.

He was in the 337th Rifle Division.

On second look, the guy that signed it was a General Major and Hero of the Soviet Union.

I agree on the HSU.

As a side note, there are collectors that collect signatures of HSU's!
