And with these horribly cast items that "
well they were just made that way and are still real" those shilling for them love to ignore the logical questions that a microscopic examination reveals.
If we take the recent Militärverwaltungsabzeichen, that Stan-the-man as well as another Belgian forum bigwig are shilling for even after watching the videos, to them they still must be real, yet won`t explain why the faker who cast them, added "fake" rivet mounds on each side, to fool the naked eye into believeing that both pieces were riveted together.
WHY? If for some strange reason they were genuine, and made in May 1945, no other materials were available, Germany was bankrupt, the only "medal maker" left who could handle the order needed to cast them, WHY would they include "fake" rivet mounds? What is the logical explanation for them?
The logical explanation is of course to fool collectors into believing that they are a two piece construction, correctly riveted together. But aknowledging that would mean accepting the microscopic examination - which many can not afford to. As the videos are shopwing each time with new scams, we are talking about huge amounts of money,
many items, many decades of wrong books and wrong ra ra. So best to just claim that these things were cast from the get-go, it will save face and money later on, as more scams are revealed.
Exposing the fake not only mean losing money, but also damaged reputations. So I fully accept and know that the backlash will continue forever.
Take Stan-the-man, I have shown twice now how wrong he is, and when you look deeper, he has medals worth up to 40 000 each! (or so he claims on forums) One of which i believe is also a cast fake, but that will be addressed much later. So there always will be this group of fools that will band together to do their utmost to discredit anything I expose. The last resort is to just brush it all aside with a sweeping "
Oh well that`s how they were made then" and then move on, never bothering to address anything like "the fake rivets" etc...
They need to, and have no other option but to. Their group grows by the day as well, as it is easier to join the screaming monkeys and save money and face, than it is to come clean and accept the logical, the plain and simple, accept the same "evidence" that is used in courts of law around the world today.
I wonder how they would react if they got burgled, lost their entire collections and contents of their house, and when the cops came around and said "We will not do any forensics or look for any fingerprints, because that`s all bogus anyway and useless"? No, they would insist, and right then and there a microscopic examination
that would be benificial to them, would be the be-all-end-all. and gladly accepted.
