What do you think? 1. Is it 'home made' 2. Or is it last type Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luka Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Hm... great piece for discussion.It is little odd that the "gold paint" is visible on the back(of outer ring), I also notice that in the inner ring is no enamel but red paint. Unfortunately I don't have similar to compare it with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wlodzimierz Posted August 21, 2008 Author Share Posted August 21, 2008 This order is made from silver, there are 3 marks: ikom, silver mark and 900.Anatoly and me had discussion about this order and I agree with Anatoly's theory:' I think this order was 2nd class in born but then(when they need 1st cl.and they did not have preparations of medallions of 1st class) they used possibly beaten medallion from 2 class ( but with good enamel in flames), having removed white enamel around stars and having processed then all medallion a gold paint.'I think that the order IS order of the 1st cl. But there is a danger, each of us without specialized tools and deep knowledge can upgrade his 2nd to 1st cl. using only knife and red color.Hopefully we will not see many of such order.

Anatoly13 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 The main question is who made that!IKOM in the last years of SFRY or someone in the commercial mercenary purposes... :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Well if that is the IKOM that made this one, they made a very bad job. It seems they didn't mind about issuing an order splashed with red paint. I personnaly do not like it. I tend more to think that this was done to increase it's value.

SasaYU Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I think that this is somenoe's DIY work.Notice the difference in colour between torches and ring colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlodzimierz Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 Thank you for comments. Color difference:The torches and red star are made from red enamel and ring is painted with red color. This explains the fact that they have different color.The right question is, as already Anatoly asked: who made it? IKOM or was it home made? waldemar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SasaYU Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 The ring is without doubt home made painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
