As a display piece, I would value that at around twenty bucks.
-
Nice family photo.
-
Sounds like an interesting Nachlass, I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd like to see photos. I'm pretty sure I've seen images of this guy in the past, possibly at WAF, but I've been banned from that forum, so I can't check.
-
Nice ones Greg, you don't often see the mini for Jungfraukreuz.
-
Without a real 'Bear' someone massively overpaid on that one.
-
I have to agree with Andreas, I saw this one amongst his other items and immediately saw the reverse hardware.
-
I'm not sure, and as this is one of the most heavily faked Imperial awards, and always wary. The construction of the bar looks good to me, maybe it's a Spangenstueck?
-
Haven't seen that one either, must be some sort of princely presentation thingy.
-
I thought this one might have a real Anhalt Order of Albert the Bear, but according to 'the Germans', it isn't.
-
Ridiculous. For various reasons I believe that engraving to be completely spurious.
-
Possible, but close-ups of the clasps and EK ribbon are needed.
-
Ja, sieht man nicht alle Tage. Jetzt wissen wir, wo die alle gelandet sind.
-
There are some very good fake batons floating around. I once held the alleged Interim-Stab of Graf von Haeseler, which was very convincing, even down to the case, but which was apparently an old copy.
-
Possibly something from a Jagdverein?
-
Yup, the 1870 combo is completely fake.
-
I was going to say, I'll sell mine immediately for that kind of money.

Saw this on US eBay, Converted EK2

I've always thought these were kind of cool. Here are a couple of my examples.

Barry at emedals is a good guy when it comes to guaranteeing his material. I agree with Komtur that the Adler-Ritter is a fake, these are quite scarce. Here is my Inhaber example.

EK 1939 EKI Wiederholungsspangen
VtwinVince replied to Jim R's topic in Germany: All Eras: The Iron Cross
Here is the clasp awarded by Kesselring to my uncle, Hauptmann Dr. Ochs, on July 12th 1940 for an action on July 10th during which his unit, 9. JG 3, wiped out a Blenheim unit, 107 RAF, near Amiens.
-
Full marks for effort. Can anyone spot the spelling errors?
-
What does the engraving say? Here's another PLM, already up to 1K, bargain for a 'real' Godet.
-
Claudio, I'm no expert on VWA's, but in nearly fifty years of collecting, I've never seen one like that. Unicorn perhaps, but they don't exist in reality either, do they. As for giving precise examples of fakes sold by Thies, I think if people want to do business with him it is up to them to do some research, that's why we have the interwebs, after all.
-
Nice, I particularly like the SEHO with dates, a scarce one. And that KO2mS looks familiar.....
-
Agreed, it all started about ten years ago with a bunch of fake Luftstreitkraefte sets with spurious engravings coming out of eastern Europe. Now the floodgates have opened.
-
Could very well be a Blass concoction, his creations do turn up regularly.
