Alex . Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Hi gents, Can you please help me with the authentication of this miniature medals bar with early GRI Military Cross and Imperial Russian order of St. Stanislaus? Does it look authentic? Have you seen the mix of WWI and WWII medals on the same bar? Thanks Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noor Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Have you used UV light? Ribbons are looking modern, stiching is pretty poor and quality of St.Stanislaus looks not so good (now, end of the war quality went down anyway). I think it is made up bar.

POWCollector Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Agree with Noor that it is hard to tell. The MC is a George VI issue so could be possible that the man in question got these made when he got his defence and war medals from ww2 but the tailor only had ww2 MC’s in stock?
