    SS 8 Years service medal

    I have a feeling this one is not genuine, based on several small things that I can find. Anyone concur or am I completely wrong in my assessment?

    Hello & welcome to the forum,

    I agree with your assessment. Does not look like an original IMO. But wait for more opinions. Antonio will know for certain.

    Best regards,

                  The flash washes the details out of the medal and the whole thing is taken from very bad angles.
                  I say it is original

                    Mr. Waffen-SS,

                    This is not an original...it is a obvious fake.

                    Regards,

                      Personally I would like to know the size, weight and see more and better pictures before saying fake.
                      Looking at only 4 poor quality pictures before saying it is fake is not taking a balanced look at the medal.
                      Pictures in natural daylight, in focus and straight on would help me.... How do I post pictures to this forum by the way? from my computer???

                        You need to either pay $45/year to become an association member ... OR host the photos on an external site (like Photobucket for e.g.) and then past the link into the [img] tags on the post as you make it. Please do not then delete the pics later as it renders the thread useless.

                        Cheers, Ian.

                          This medal is 100% not a proven wartime period.
                          There was a link to may 1945 bring back vet piece, but when I started to search about this link there were less proofs than what I thought.
                          So this medal was not original and it still is not original.

                          - THE ITALIAN-GERMAN MEDAL
