    What are the give away's for identifying the order of the red star?
    Are there more than one style of fakes on the front?
    How about the soldiers left foot, do the fakes all have the same rearward point, I assume some orignals do to.
    Where the rifle points?
    Are the fakes not made of real silver, are the orignals?
    how do you tell ?
    I have found one, but want to know if it is a fake, IF I can get pictures I'll post them. What would the value of the most common but REAL version be (in good condition)?

    I agree, a picture is what we need first.

    Fakes of various rarer versions exist. Conversion & Re-numbering of later original awards to make fakes is also an issue to consider.

    Original are made of silver and so are most, if not all, fakes too.

    Cheers, Ade.

    I think it is real but it is clearly not wartime issue serial # is 2,969,536

    It is being offered as part of a package all items seem real but not all wartime.
