avsaribar Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Dear Mr.Murat , To tell the exact decision , it is need to examine them in hands . But in my opinion , i mean how i feel and they look , they are original. ( A French Made ( Cannot read from the picture , whom made it..) Osmanie Breast Star , and a Grand cross set in Box ) Regards, Avsar IBAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demir Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 (edited) Hello Murat, As Avsar said we can not be sure from a picture but from the seal at reverse I think it is made by a jeweller named Halley. One can see other foreign mades. I think the expert on this subject is Mr. Tim Tezer who is a member and has written an article about Mecidis (although this an Osmani) in JOMSA Vol.55 March/April 2004 Number 2.

Tim Tezer Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 I would agree that these appear to be originals, but the photos are very small. I do not know of any fakes of the Halley stars - at least not yet. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
