Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals

I don't like the appearance of the ring or the composition of the medal's metal.

Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals

What an excellent example of a mint mistake! I assume the reverse is off-center as well and the ring is just misplaced and the whole is not a die flaw?

Re: Fake "Capture of" Campaign Medals

Very cool. Is it a worn, or used, example? Did you get it from a veteran?
