    Not all fakes have quality! ;>)


    Recommended Posts

    Makes you wonder why such things exist. Even eBay people aren't dumb enough for these, or are they? Were they, as Mike implies, childrens' toys? Like the plastic US medals that used to come in breakfast cereal boxes (and are now immensely collectible -- why did my mother throw them out?).

    :cheeky: I honestly don't know.... cannot even remember where I lifted the photos. eBay, but might have been the UK one.... an awful lot of bad Soviet stuff in the UK for some reason. I just remember laughing when I saw the photo... none of the reverse offered, probably have safety pins on the back!

    Are they real fakes or representative Soviet Badges?

    Because they are obviously not real, I too tend to believe that these had some purpose other than to deceive, i.e. as decorative devices on wall displays or some other kind of substitutes for the real thing. These have been around for a while and I don't think anyone (other than ebay :unsure: ) would try to pass them off as the real deal.
