Re: Fake Medals for Combat Service
This is my combat medal. I know, the suspension is new, but what do you think, the number on the back of the medal can be original?

Re: Fake Medals for Combat Service
Looks good to me. I'd be willing to put $ on a wager that it was issued by the South Western Front.
