Defense of Kyiv Medal Authentication

Looks ok from these dark pics. I am just used to see these more shiny and not so flat in colour.
Fake, no other options
Why do you say that?
Medals in USSR were produced using a stamping method (exactly same method which is used at minting of coins). The medal above is produced using a casting method, the clear indication of this you see at the reverse side of this medal with plenty of "air bubbles".
Also, look at the "ear" of this medal and compare with original one.
I do not know where you take all these medals (Sevastopol, Belgrade and Kiev), but all of them are fakes.
Damn...... :.
On second review yes, this is an obvious casted medal. It wasn't visible clearly when checking on my phone. So better not to respond anymore when only checking the phone....unless good pics in good light are posted. So apologies for a wrong assesment. My fault.
