    Hi

    I am new to this forum, but having been collecting militaria for many years. Mainly WW1 and WW2 British and commonwealth items.

    I have a small number of medals, but am now looking to expand into medal collecting. Looking at the medals I currently have, and doing some research there are a few medals that I am uncertain if they are originals.

    Please could someone give their opinion on these two Burma star medals.      

    Thanks

    The last two images may be a copy, look at the «E», the middle lettering is tha same size. Look at the first image you will se that the middle letter in «E» is shorter than the two other.

    Pictures of an authentic Burma Star.  The second star is not good in my estimation (last two pictures).  The first two pictures look ok from the pictures that you provided but not a star I would want to have in my collection.

    Regards,
