Hello all,

 

I have just found out that I have been burned on a PH/BS group that I bought a year ago... I bought it from a respected medal dealers website.I guess anyone can make a misstake.

 

Today I was looking through websites trying to learn more about engraving styles and found my medal group being referred to as a fake..

 

My question is if you could post some examples of Bronze Star engravings on a slant? As that is what my medal is.

 

Regards Kristoffer

Kristoffer,

 

Why don't you post your example here so that you can get some feedback by forum members? If you have been cheated, perhaps the group can help you to get a refund. If the dealer is a "respected medal dealer," I would expect him (or her) to do the right thing and refund your money.

Thanks for the photo Kadet!

I see the difference in the engraving..

So mine are fakes?

Could I get any more opinions of the medals?

Before I contact the seller. Really had hoped these were good, was my favourite group.

Regards Kristoffer

Hi Kristoffer

 

The examples you posted definitely have bad engraving. In my opinion the engraving is from the last 10 years.

 

The medals themselves are WWII contract medals.

Hi Kastauffer,

 

Thanks for the help.

 

I will contact the seller and see if he is willing to refund me. Hopefully he will.

The medals are now on the way back to the seller. I will get a refund. I thank him for that.

Thanks for helping me with the engraving.

 

I will now try and find some new medals for my collection.
