Re: Fake Medals for Valiant and Distinguished Labor
Thanks guys. With that info, I'll approach him and maybe he'll go down from $900 to about $200 - which is all I can afford right now.:chuckle

Are we sure the seller even knows it a fake susp? I couldn't tell one way or the other and I've been a collector for a while now.

Re: Fake Medals for Valiant and Distinguished Labor
Eric, I had no idea either, but I don't have much experience with older suspension medals.
By the by, "engraving" is both the nominative (noun) in this case and is also the active form of the verb to engrave: "Sam is/was engraving." But if you say "Sam does engraving" you are using it as a subject modifier (noun) - What does Sam do? Engraving. ;) Wow, I've had enough grammar for this semester.:chuckle Phillip

Re: Fake Medals for Valiant and Distinguished Labor
I'd be surprised if it was bad.
One of my favorites; simple but stylish.

Re: Fake Medals for Valiant and Distinguished Labor
Thank you, gentlemen. The price was right, so I took a chance. Indeed, its patina and the simple elegance of the enamel work are quite attractive.

Regardless, the one you are showing is a good example of the T2V2. I have a few of them myself and like Eric said: "simple but stylish." Same goes for the the Distinguished Labor medals. That leads me to this one. I have my reservations about the serial number and the way it isn't level, but rises on the right. The medal itself is real enough, but I just don't like even the numbers themselves. They seem a bit sloppier than regular mint work. Thoughts? Phillip

Re: Fake Medals for Valiant and Distinguished Labor
I'm leaning towards "good". That's just an edjucated guess though.
