    Leibregiemnt Friendship Medal / Good and Fake?

    Gentlemen,

    I have two Medals given by the Bavarian Leibregiment to
    its brothers in arms in Austria.

    Number 1 is an example that I do not doubt at all.
    Have it at home now and canĀ“t weigh it.
    It looks to be surface treated.

    Number 2 is one that I received just now.
    I do not like the detail on this one, it may be be a cast.
    It weighs 23 Gramms and seems to be of solid, unmagnetic metal,
    not surface treated.

    What do you think?
    Is there evidence of these being faked?

          For your info:
          I learned from another forum that only Number 1 is the correct style.
          Silvered Buntmetall is the real deal.
          Number 2 is a fake and goes back to the seller.

          Cheers,
          taube.

            Hello:

            Yes, Number 2 is a modern cast copy.

            Was this from an ebay.de seller from Bayern? There is a certain seller that has many cast copies. I hope that you are able to get your money returned.

            Mfg,
