Paul R Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 He sold one with a book for 900+ dollars recently. The early 90s was the time to get them. I am glad that I got mine... I could never afford one now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Zulus Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Dear Richard Lee,you showed an extraordinary beautyful example of that medal to us: Traces of real use, but well preserved details & perfect enamel .I would prefer it to the medal, Igor has now to offer, because Igor's medal has some failures in the enamel.You will get a good price, if you want to sell it .There is also a "Sales Room" at GMIC.Best regards ChristianBTW: I was happy to get two of them for an "apple & egg" in the 1990s .

PsyWar.Org Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 Thanks all for your replies and details about the value. Sadly I don't have a document with this one. I did always try to only collect awards with their documents but it was not always possible.It's good to hear that the price has jumped considerably in the meantime. I am thinking of parting with what I have left and GMIC solds like a great place to sell them.Christian, I appreciate your comments about the condition, especially as regards the enamel. Presumably it is not a good idea to clean it but to leave the original patina? Thanks,Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickstrenk Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Simply,I decided to activate the topic.Not too many of these medals are exibited for showing or discussing.I also had some time ago this medal on the earlier suspension,but it was a fake.
