Herr General Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Maybe someone on this forum has an interest in this medalbar:http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-Old-Cuba-Militari...1QQcmdZViewItem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Interesting. A lot of these pre-Liberation Cuban groups seem to have come to the market all of a sudden. Could they all have been hiding under a rock, or in a collection, somewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev in Deva Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Well they are nice, but so is this one, offered by the same dealer:http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-Cuba-Interallied-...tem260077564061But as usual they go for a nice sum Kevin in Deva destitute and broke after Christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBFloyd Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Ed,The majority of the pre-Castro Cuban awards come through coin dealers in Cuba. They seem to funnel things through Germany and Miami. In the past 10 years, I've seen more Republic-era medals than in the previous 30 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 And there seems to be no shortage of interest in the pre-Revolucion era items based on prices I've been watching. The Battista & earlier stuff has historical import to me, but only insofar as it's impetus for the change it created in 1959. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Does anybody know the significance of the small, gilt "v"s stacked up on the third medal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
