Good luck with your quest! At least you've saved $150 towards them now.......

now that i look at it ive noticed two big red flags, one being that the wreath is off-center and the suspension ring isnt teardrop shaped.

thanks for the heads up though guys!

Most of the time collectors will have repros mixed in with genuine
pieces as fillers, so If there were a lot of other collectors 'picking'
through and buying from this lot, you might guess that most
of the 'good stuff ' is gone.

Go see what's left, and good luck................. !

Surely the dealer new he was selling you a fake to accept $150 when these medals are rare and worth thousands

The biggest red flag is that the wreath, despite being off centre was an integral part of the badge on originals. It was never seperately applied, it had a reverse with oakleaves!
