    1. Hmm, 

      It really looks real by the pictures on EBAY , and I haven´t seen any real good fakes of this class ...

      But hard to be 100% without holding in real life , and comparing weight and size . But I would vote for genuine , anyone else ?

      The price is ???  but maybe everyone waiting for a sniper attack ?

      will be interesting to follow.

      Very nice Dave !

      I think there was about 2600 awarded of this medal !

      But I think the document is even rarer , I have not seen more than a couple during the years .

    3. Hi Lars , 

      After looking at it IRL I totally agree with you , the order is to wrong to be Finnish and as you say , the first one could be Belgium instead.

      Well I got two nice minis from Finland and now on the hunt for a Crown Order and a Polish one :)  Probably more easy to find than a FLC II  ....

    4. A new one , with a owner that has done what ?

      Finnish Order of the Lion Knight 1st Class , Finnish Liberty Cross 2nd Class Civilian , and French Agricultural Merit Order Officer

      Strictly he should have the FLC II before the Lion Order but the French Order is quite rare it is one of the highest Orders and instututed in 1887 and since then only about 60 000 has been awarded and I suppose most to French citizens .

      Probably some professor , I will try and find out who it could be :wacky: The combination must be unusual
