Stogieman Posted March 29 Author Posted March 29 This one was pretty convincing, but I checked with some real experts and it’s a well known fake. Bronze gilt per the seller, asking was $2950!

Farkas Posted March 31 Posted March 31 Hi Gents, I wasn’t sure whether to post this over in the ‘real’ or here in the ‘fakes’… I spotted this earlier, the dealer has a good reputation and I don’t want to cast aspersions but for such a scarcely issued award and I presume therefore prestigious award… the quality of workmanship looks terrible to me. Prussian Order of Louise 1813-14 Issue, Gold & Enamel First Class Medal I’ve marked a few things on this 👇. Seems to me iit has obvious tool marks but it is the inconsistent width and edges that made me doubt it initially.. If it’s in fact a genuine piece then no wonder the maker didn’t want to put his mark on it. Any thoughts Gents? tony 🍻
VtwinVince Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Good Lord, these aren't even remotely convincing fakes, the Luise included. 1

Stogieman Posted April 4 Author Posted April 4 Another bad Grand Cross copy, don’t know where they’re coming from but there’s an awful lot of them out there and no shortage of people bidding on them
VtwinVince Posted April 4 Posted April 4 Who knew that GC's were given out like EK2's! And those fake Schaper badges are truly God-awful and bear no resemblance to genuine examples.
Stogieman Posted April 5 Author Posted April 5 Yet another fake Wagner PLM, this one brought $1009! One would think that when a seller has a dozen of these that something might not be just right but people just keep snapping them up! It’s the same people, over and over again. Grand Crosses, PLMs, Pilot Badges. A never ending supply of scarce pieces.
Stogieman Posted April 8 Author Posted April 8 Usual Suspect but this time a fake 1914 Grand Cross, final bid was $510

Stogieman Posted April 22 Author Posted April 22 This is the fourth identical set this person has sold like this! People just keep buying, I just don’t get it! This one brought over $600!
VtwinVince Posted April 22 Posted April 22 LOL, I love the outlandish printed scenes on the insides of these cases, completely ridiculous.
Stogieman Posted April 25 Author Posted April 25 Yet another 1870 EK1, was offered to me for $625, someone bought it. They rain down on eBay! Who knew!
