Fake Orders for Service to the Motherland

I have a bad feeling about this one:

1. white enamel looks bad, more like paint
2. screw-nut
3. serial number

What do you think?

Re: Fake Orders for Service to the Motherland

Only with these pictures I would stay away.

Looks not good to me. White enamel looks like paint.
Better (more clear) pictures is a must have.

I tend to say, it is bad.

I agree on the white "enamel".

Re: Fake Orders for Service to the Motherland

William,

Can you please take this order apart and make large picture of its individual parts (front/back). And while you're at it, can you also weigh it (without the screwplate).

Marc

The order is not mine, I saw someone selling it and it looked suspect.

For sale on a dealer's website... Looks nice but are these even known to be in private hands? Only 13 have been awarded if I'm not mistaken... Would this be a converted 2nd or 3rd class?

Re: Fake Orders for Service to the Motherland

Hi !

the quality of the images is too bad, but on the first glimpse it looks somehow "painted" and the serial number altered. The golden parts do look brand new (even at the edges) and the even, blackened parts show some wear... that doesn`t fit to each other. But this is only my first impression.

I also prefer an enlargement like this, to see the work of rotary tool.
