Re: Fake Mother-Heroine Medal

I don't mean to be a smartass, but the seller says it's a copy: "Order of Mother Heroine - COPY. Serial Number: #432057". Or did he add this phrase after seeing you all discuss it here?

Re: Fake Mother-Heroine Medal

Stahanov,

I don't know the seller, but I asume he is an honest guy. Unfortunately, medals sold as copies, are sometimes offered for sale as originals by the next owner.

Re: Fake Mother-Heroine Medal

It's got the right small case/box of the three boxes that make up the complete set.

Re: Fake Mother-Heroine Medal

I am not so sure it's a repro, could be a genuine piece with the gold star replaced. Any chance for some better pictures?
