was the ring always soldered together? SOMETIMES THE RING WAS SINGLE-PIECED, SOMETIMES IT WAS MADE AS PART OF THE MEDAL.

On one of my medals the ring does not fully join together. IT HAPPENS.

Sorry for shot-gunning so many questions, but it really frustrates me in this area of the medal and hinders my selection process when purchasing a medal. THEN WAIT AND PURCHASE BETTER EXAMPLES - MOST CAMPAIGN MEDALS ARE RELATIVELY COMMON
