Order of Personnal Courage
This one is on E...
I think it's a fake but would like to get a confirmation from the experts

Laurent,
Given the shape of the leaves, the attachment ring and a few other things, I'd say that it is a Balt-made fake. Marc |

I concur, copies like this often come from one of the Baltic States.

There is an Order of Personal Courage on e_ _ _ that appears to be fake. Some of the same reasons as that above. The leaves lack detail, the white enamel is rough at the oval. The ring is not plated on the reverse.
The current price is only 120 USD plus S&H from Israel. What do you think?

I don't like it at all!
Do you have a image of the reverse?

This is the back, the engraving looks very nervous.

I sent the seller an email to see if he is honest enough to pull this from bidding.
To Seller: In your description you used the following statement: "I don't have enough experience to identify the order." I have enough experience to tell that you are trying to sell a fake. I am 99.9% sure it is not real. For you to sell it after being notified and not labeling it as a reproduction is fraudulent. I can tell you why if you care.
