Last opinion the original or fake?

My last comments on this medal is that COA,s dont add credibility to any award.Also remember that COA,s are faked as well.

Analyse the medal itself and you will see that it is bad.All the way from its quoted measurements, to its teardrop suspension ring with the cut on the side.

Its a very common fake and its origins are known.This one hasnt just appeared on the market.

Would have to agree it is the 70s Brit fake. High end fake but fake none the less

The key points for me are

1) the double rim on the swaz side and
2) also on the swaz side the imperfection above the upper left arm at the rim

Your Detlev certificate could be a fake as well. That happening more and more or he could just be wrong

Send it back and see what he says. ALso I think the pic in the certificate is not of the same medal. Can you post a close up of the pic in the certificate??

Alarix,

The last example you posted is original.

The version with the COA is a dud with its period and point of origin known.

Ignore COA,s.
They are simply a dealers sale tool ,which in many cases are attached to give the item an aura of authenticity.
