ID Soviet Medal

Hey guys, not a Russian collector but came across this medal. Have no idea what it is or if it's original. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Order of the red banner awarded six times. If that one is real I bellieve you hit jack pot

Cheers Thomas

Tell you what ... if someone is trying to sell it for less than 4 figures ... I would seriously ask him why.

These are heavily faked. These with the "6" you just don't see on the market.

So if it's cheap. RUN!

It is a fake. THe shape of the "six" number doesn't fit at all. Original pieces are more than scarce and really expensive.

The 6 looks weird and i also don´t like the mint mark from this photos. Weren´t all the "6" and "7" Type 4s with a small mint mark?

But i have maybe seen one or two real ones of these and certainly never handled one, so what do i know...

Thanks for the opinions they was very helpful.
