HuliganRS Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Most transitional medals are faked.This one comes from a seller that is known to sell fakes.Although, I find it funny how he's selling this huge collection from the "last" OMSA convention for the last 2 years...Here's my transitional medal:Here's the later Russian Federation medal:Rusty.

order_of_victory Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 Thanks for shedding some light on the Medal.Mine came from a large collection of Soviet Medals that I bought off getleman, who picked them up in Georgia and NY dealers in the early 1990's, so I think mine may be genuine.Order of Victory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
