Don't be fooled- it's the same medal with a different ribbon. It always was.
I was just about to ask: If they are identical except for the ribbon, then why don't more people (auction-site sellers) just replace the ribbon and go for the bigger money? I have to admit, the idea even crossed my mind to make my own on the cheap - then I realized I would be hard pressed to find the right ribbons.:doh
