gorget on Gottlieb auction
being a non-militaria writer so admittedly clueless as to anything regards originality, saw an SS gorget on the new auction

An exspensive item to make a mistake on for the buyer and seller.

The one that is the subject of this thread on CG's auction is up to $8230.
Has anyone brought this to Craig's attention... I would be fuming if I was the buyer.

Thanks for pointing that out Pieter.
Was that statement about the chain being a reproduction there in the description the entire time? I dont recall seeing it before and easy to overlook it seeing as it just snuck in at the end of the description there.
Is it still worth 8k+ with a repro chain? I doubt the bidder even has a clue that the chain is a fake.

It's the most expensive thing in the auction right now, and I expect it'll close higher. Good luck to all the bidders! Pieter - do I see you at MAX for the spanking?
