Auction Items good or bad? Pre-War 2nd RP version.

[3mk]

Hey guys,
I made a thread for II RP items because if we all post our items in the exile one it will become very long and hard to use if you want to compare your items to others.

Heres one Im wondering about looks rather new but I havent seen much fakes with numbering
Polish 1920 Cross of Valor Poland medal WWI Numbered on eBay.ca (item 180449033978 end time 30-Dec-09 14:50:24 EST)

Good idea for a thread Emil. I was considering starting such a thread, but you beat me to the punch. I've made it a sticky for continued use and reference.

Regards,
Tony

Now you Exile guys can have your own party there without me runing it
Now back to the cross anyone wanna comment on it?Ive been looking for a good Cross of Valor and stumbbled on this one,Looks rather new Ill try comparing it to some on the pre-war Cross of Valor thread

[3mk]

Few observations I made
The ones in the other thread have a lines pattern in the backround behinde the eagle and the eagle center piece is bigger,But since there were many varients I dont think Ill let this one go so Ill wait till someone with more expertise comments on it

Emil, this is some sort of weird copy cast in white metal. As you know the Cross of Valour is supposed to be made of copper alloy (bronze/ brass). Leave this one alone.

Thanks Tony
That was one of the parts that worried me the weird metal.
Well the search goes on for the ``perfect`` Cross of Valor

I seen this on ebay,
The Proffesor made a mistake and made the starting bid $10.6 (ten dollars and 6 cents)instead of $106.00 (One hundred and six dollars) like the rest of his badges.I was watching for the fun of it and Im just wondering is the badge original?If it turns out to be the buyer most be one happy man!

Ive been offered this for $85 is this pre-war or a post-war??One of my concerns is that I cant see if its a closed collar or a modified open collar,and also whats up with the strange patches on the collar?

Thanks
