SlimWill Posted November 11, 2021 Posted November 11, 2021 As a big fan of the Antiques Roadshow, I particularly enjoy the segment when Fiona Bruce has to identify the original item from the fake. I have a dilemma that I can't quite figure out if any of the three 39-45 stars that are sitting on my desk are fake. A good friend, who I trust his expert knowledge, has advised me and I'm sitting here with my loupe trying to figure it out. I would appreciate your thoughts on the trio below!
Alex K Posted November 22, 2021 Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) I would say all three are original, quite a commmon medal, not heavily faked, unlike the aircrew europe star, copies do sometimes have larger unsoldered suspension rings from my experience Edited November 22, 2021 by Alex K
SlimWill Posted November 22, 2021 Author Posted November 22, 2021 Thanks @Alex K. This has been driving me bananas! I've had all three on the digital scale and looked ar them with my steroscope on x10 mag.
Graf Posted December 11, 2021 Posted December 11, 2021 I agree with Alex K comments SlimWill, you can relax ..and sleep well now ..and enjoy the Show
