Fire Brigade Decoration on Estand

[Tom Yanacek]

Hi guys,

The Fire Brigade Decoration shown in the attached estand sales thread was just sold a few days ago and a forum member contacted me saying that it is a fake. Although the pictures are small, I concur with the forum member that brought this to my attention.

I cropped and enlarged a view of the front and reverse but unfortunately much resolution is lost. Still, I think the images are good enough (for those that collect this type of item) to see that at it is a well-known fake.

Best regards,
Tom

Yes Tom, that one's a fake for sure.

Obvious fake...but its from a vet lot and the first "ill take it" gets it.

I wish everyone used this forum to help others rather than just using it to sell their garbage.

Warmest Regards,
Chris G.

Hi Chris, to be fair to Brent he didn't say it was a 'vet lot' but the long-range reverse shot of the cross was enough for me to message him (and Tom )

Hopefully someone saved $200 towards some books

Both the buyer and seller are aware of this and I'm sure the matter will be resolved.
