Re: Medal "For Gallantry".
With Op. Herrick 20A all over and Op. Herrick 20B cancelled, the lack of men "on the ground" has caused some "at the source" vendors that I have been "romancing" for some time to get quite needy for a customer. Offers come in daily but there are now just as many fake Afghan items being offered as real. Although the fake items are usually so very obvious (cast etc.). I have one source that offers only real items and another source that offers just as many fakes as real items and I have to pick them on what I want. The sellers treat most of the items the same and ask as much for fakes as the real bits. I'm not buying up the fakes so the balance will be tipping more to fakes than real by the time I've finished. Prices are good and are in fact dropping with the greater need for customers with less westerners lingering around in person.
This next Medal may be a bit tired (as the ring has sheered) but it cost under £18 and is certainly not one of the "lordship" style fakes that I have seen sell for up to and over $75.
