Lightfoot Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Here are two examples, I think that the photos are from various auction sites... These are actually miniatures. 1.JPG2.JPG3.JPG4.JPG Nice miniature badges, first time I see Goldstein manufacturer. Maybe because I have never been interested in them before .

paja Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Now that you have mentioned daggers, I also noticed big amount of them being offered and sold. They are mostly coming from the same sellers some of them are of pretty good quality others not, but that doesn't mean that they are fake. Also there couple of "types" of these daggers looking pretty much the same with sometimes different details for example different type of material used from the handle. Do you perhaps have some photos of those fake chetnik daggers? I'm really interested to see how they look like and compare them with others from ebay.

Lightfoot Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Now this is an original of lieutenant colonel Sinisha "Pazarac" Ocokoljic that was one of the closest officer´s of General Mihailovich. He was the organizator of the withdrawal to Slovenia. He managed to escape to Austria, but there he was kidnapped by Tito´s agents after the war and brought to Belgrade at a show trial. He was tortured and executed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
