Re: Fake Medals for Bravery

I can't comment on the price, but it's true.

Re: Fake Medals for Bravery

Looks good compared to the Mondvor site examples.
I can't imagine it could be worth more than $40, IMO.

Nowhere near $40, I'll get it bought up!

Re: Fake Medals for Bravery

In that shape, $20 would be more in line...

Re: Fake Medals for Bravery

I believe this medal to be legitimate with the research I've done, would like some reassurance.
From what I've seen it looks to have been awarded around 1944.
Thanks

It's not a brass. This suspension is made of two layers of a white tin.
Summer of 1944.
