Yankee Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Dear GMIC Members For most it is common knowledge that Oldenburg has an enormous amount of high quality fakes in circulation & a good many are being valued as orginals. In regards to the stars & officer class examples there is a simple step that will allow collectors to differentiate a good example from a bad one. All genuine Bernard Knauer examples should have his first initial B stamped as B KNAUER on the reverse. Examples without the B and reads only KNAUER should be avoided & treated as post 1918 copies.
