Nack,
I have no problems with your observations. I am actually quite thankful that you made them.
I am confident that the piece is legit(because of the time period and the place where it was bought). The Serial Number also fits the bill as well. Even if it did not, can you imagine what a great find a Order of Glory 3rd class would be with this number?!?!
With that being said, I believe that it could be replated by the original owner? I know that re-ribboning occurred ALOT back in the early 90s, tampering with the actual medal was still considered sacrilegious
Can someone please post one with a good center for comparison?
