3 Medal Bar, good or bad?

[Harvey A]

Hello all, I'm new to the association and have been busy checking on things I've picked up in the past few months. I'm not an advanced collector of German Militaria and need some help and a lot of luck. I bought this medal bar ($150)thinking it had to be right. The pin clasp was missing so I made a crude one. Yesterday I saw a post that indicated bars like this are being faked, so I want your opinion, good or bad. Thanks.

Harvey,

Looks like a good bar to me. The ribbons look fine, nice age on the medals. I think you did OK. Were in the mid-south are you located?

I think the bar looks okay as well.

The pin catch that is pictured was made by you??? If so, it looks pretty good.

Garth, I live in Dyersburg,TN. What about you?

Yes I did make the pin catch; thanks.

Did you black light it?
It looks ok to me. The red backing is the most common for medal bars-but also for fake medal bars. The catch looks good and so do the medals themselves and it's a common grouping-many fake bars have "teaser" elements to thme.
