Stogieman Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Well, I crawled eBay.de and saw some extroidinary medal bars, but the pricing really puts me off. Is this really we’re we’re at these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtwinVince Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Yup, it's pretty sad out there these days. Aside from all the fakes, one of which you've posted, and other bars which have been fiddled with and are massively overpriced, such as that first one, there isn't much left over.

Stogieman Posted January 15, 2023 Author Share Posted January 15, 2023 The Saxon Bar is right but opening bid is 600 Euro! Your right, bars have been adulterated, messed with and monkey fingered as my old friend Rick Research would say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lew Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) The last bar is one of the Schrägstich fakes. The first bar doesn't look legit to me, he has several other bars in offering, all with sloppy assembly and mixed with new and old ribbon, all medals seem to be original though. Here is one of his, see different wear of the two EK ribbons, and different ribbon folding in the back. Another one from him, note the different wear on the ribbons. The MVO ribbons look like repro ones with smooth boarder. Edited January 15, 2023 by lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtwinVince Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 There is a long discussion about the Saxon bar over at SDA, turns out it's a real bar with the St. Henry ribbon being a modern copy, so it's also messed with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted January 16, 2023 Author Share Posted January 16, 2023 Thanks, I don’t realize that. It’s a dead ringer for a bar I owned years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
