If anything, it's "good." It stands for "LMD" or Leningrad Mint.

Most orders produced in the late 70's and 80's had the mint mark stamped on the loop.

Marc,
Fakes Section is only for posting questions about authenticity, so I had to move your thread. Alexei |

Common fakes
Is there a "comprehensive" or best guide list that anyone could recommend for spotting fake docouments and medals? There's lots of info out there - I'm just looking for a single source (free or otherwise) if available. Thanks!

Hello Rob, this link is a very good resource for education on fakes:

Guys,
This link was still to a commercial site, so I have deleted it. If anyone's interested please e-mail me. Besides all the information from that page is available here on the forum in the Fakes Section. Please note that there is a brief article about fakes in general in the root directory of the Fakes. And as always your friendly moderators are standing by to assist you ![]() Alexei |

I believe per Art's rules that commercial link is one of very few that is allowed... Rusty.
