So they are even making dupes of this medal....

[petopoint]

yup

There was a thread earlier that had a link to a British metal Casting company that reproduces the DAK and 1870 and 1914 EKI's along with many other Europeon awards.

Unfortunately even the "cheapest" medals are being faked.
I can't think of any medal that hasn't been faked.

I got burned on one a few months ago, Came with a floch EK1 too. Wasn't to happy when I found out both were bad.

You can find the italo-german medal in several sites that sell reproductions.
And as Pierce said on the market there's no one Third Reich medal that is not falsified.
I show one for example.
