Certificates of authenticity from the super duper "expert" Mr. Klimov. Traditionally undated. Why? You see, after October 22, 2022 his license was suspended "due to a conflict of interest", therefore he cannot use the seal of the Ministry of Culture. Tricky trickster Mr. Klimov.
Fakers used original breast star of Franz Joseph-Orden made by Vinc. Mayer`s Sohne in Wien. Original medallion was replaced with a fake medallion of Saint Alexander Nevsky order and maker's plaque was dismantled.
Original marks.
Example of an intact breast star.

Weight 57.5 g.
Original Moscow assay office silver hallmarks from 1884 and maker's mark "ИХ".
So how did they end up on the reverse of the fake breast star of the order of St. Alexander Nevsky? Someone cut out the bottom of the original silver short glass and soldered it to the breast star reverse.
