Leclerc Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Dear friends, Could you please tell me what you think about this Soviet Order of Glory? Could it be an original 2nd class order, a 3rd class "transformed" into a 2nd class one or even a complete fake? The hanger seems to be a modern replacement. Thank you very much for your help!

JapanX Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Dear Leclerc, these photos that you posted are so low quality (were they made from outer space?)... Although even at these photos we can see "jumping" letters in the CCCP reverse inscription (check out 2nd letter C) ... Let me put it this way - not a good sign Another thing - the wrinkles at the ends of the ribbon with "slava" inscription. A lot of original here can be found here http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/55356-order-of-glory-2-class/ so you can form your own opinion (by comparison places at obverse and reverse that I mentioned above).

Paul R Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I am not a fan. As stated by Nick, please request better pics. This is too big of an investment not to be sure on. OGIIs are not cheap anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
