Stogieman Posted March 29 Author Share 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farkas Posted March 31 Share 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 🍻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
