8 years SS medal

[Gregorio Torres]

Could anybody tell us by these pictures if the 8 years medal is a good one?

99% sure that the 8 year is ok, but I think that the 4 year is a reproduction...difficult to tell from those photos.
Personally, out of principle, I would not buy anything off someone who provides such poor pictures. These SS medals are nowhere near as scarce as their prices suggest...if the seller cannot come up with better pictures, look elsewhere.

I believe this is the case in much of the SS side of collecting.

Thank you Mr. Gray
And yes.... SS items will be the most expensive in this hobby always.
