Eagle Order Medal W/Swords Bronze

[Jeff Nichols]

Hello Gents,


Would like some opinions on this one, I am not that up on these. It is unmarked. I notice back of swords are not finished and lettering on back is not in block letters but gothic. Detail looks pretty good though. Could this be a salesman board example if original? Thanks...Jeff

Hi Jeff,

Sorry, but that one is a fake. A bronze Merit Medal to the German Eagle Order should never have Gothic Script on the reverse. Latin script only.

Best regards,
Tom

Another fake and this one is the same exact type of fake as the one that started this thread.
