Eric Gaumann Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 That first bar is so very basic; CSM, Cascasus, and VoG. But the CSM is numbered, and of course the upgraded ribbon/suspension that is rarely seen in such pristine condition... I've had my chance at the suspension in the past and I regret no buying them when they had no added interest. The second bar.... such lovely, dark patina on those two silver medals. That VoG ribbon, it looks just a very tiny bit off. I don't doubt it much, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Gaumann Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 The third bar: 1940s awards on 1960s+ hardware. The second BM ring re-soldering I'm not concerned about. Typical post-war repair, IMO. The wrong, re-ribboning is not a deal-breaker, I've seen it done in the DDR all the time but in the USSR, not so much. But.... IMO this is a legit 1950s/60s/70s bar. Probably.

Thank you for the feedback. I know many vets who mounted their awards on 1960's hardware. This was very common practice.
