Christian Zulus Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Dear "Moore ...",there is a certain lack of detail at the av & rv of the medal and the ring is soldered rather crudly.Might be a casted fake .Best regardsChristian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley1965 Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Moore,To me it looks like a poor repair job at re-attaching the ring. However, Zulus does have a point on the detail. This may be due to "wear and tear". For now, I think you have a good-fine condition Medal for the Defense of the Caucasus. Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Zulus Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Gentlemen,you are right: I had a closer look at the scans and it definitely looks like "wear and tear". Best regards Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riley1965 Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Moore,That is a very nice present!!! It one of many Soviet Campaign medals. If you decide to collect them I would suggest purchasing the medals WITH the award document. Some of the medals and documents for a few of the them are a little bit costly, but well worth the price. Ask any questions you may have. Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
