I found a very rare photo of a Journal of the Brazilian Navy, the Victory Medal, and I want to share with the Gentlemen. Photo taken in 1939 at 50 years of the Proclamation of the Republic Among some decorations are: Vic Brazilian end Commemorative Medal of the Royal Visit to Brazil (1920) Admiral Henrique Aristides Guilhem

Hi Rob. Thanks for sharing. I am interested in getting more mini-group, maybe later ... Lambert

It is still marked. "made in france" Lambert

Wow! They are 100% fake (all) rough copies. Lambert

É uma tarefa bem dificil. Tenho em meus aquivos soldados Norte Americanos, com Cross de Guerre (França). Lambert

Hi Rob, Indeed, palms are "A" and "L", I believe it is Belgian, but how they got there, I do not know. I think that the veteran was in service in Belgium (I'm an optimist) ... or were added to the group value on Ebay. I guess we'll never know. in fact, I really like this group. Lambert

Hi Bill Very good! is in excellent condition. To demonstrate the color correctly, I suggest using a scanner to scan the image, is 100% correct. I'm awaiting the arrival of some Vic in my collection: A Vic Portugual, Italy and finally USA. Lambert

This is another example of my collection. Service Medal: State of Missouri: Model for the Federal Army service between April 6, 1917 and November 11, 1918.

Hello to all Jim, great post!! When your book comes out? Lambert :beer:

Hi Ulsterman The numbering of the coin identifies each soldier who won? This seems very difficult to control. lambert

This is a series that I also like very much, this example this superb. The few I am assembling this collection, which also has some medals hard to find. Rob, how many Service Medals do you have? Regards Lambert

The seller put back on sale. with an attractive price. http://www.ebay.co.u...4#ht_500wt_1287 :beer:

Hi Bill, I do not, apparently, nothing wrong with the medal Type 1, the image doesn't help much but seems this Ok. The price also does not scare me, I've seen more expensive. Lambert

This is my Example, with the Green cardboard box. with the manufacturer's Mark Victor Canale of Paris. By RobW Lambert

Hi Bill. Johny is right. This is the Medal of the type 2 (official) This is the information I know. manufacturing variations. Type 1 (official form) is named after the sculptor Henry NOCQ the edge of the obverse. Type 2: As above, distinguished by different signature of the sculptor, HENRY NOCQ (name in capital letters), placed above the edge of the obverse. Type 3: Details different, especially in the ring of the ribbon. This model does not contain the signature of the sculptor. Type 4: Manufacture Huguenin. This model does not contain the signature of the sculptor. Lambert

I am sure, can I include Welsh in the next message. : D Hapusrwydd a Heddwch Lambert

Yes ... interesting group. Both were officers, one in the 22nd French Canadian Battalion Lambert Dumont Laviolette & Alexandre Laviolette I would be very happy to find a group or even just a Medal with my name written. Lambert

Hello Bill, Really don't know. What I might notice is that the mount does not seem to have been modified. (It'll never know.) I believe that it is the original 20. The black lines are very fragile believe that is ok. As the order of the medals this wrong the first medal must be MC, followed by the 1914 Star. etc.. Lambert

I wish all friends of the forum, a very successful 2012. Lambert :beer:

Hi. A mini-group decoration of my collection 1914 Star War Medal Victory Medal Militar Cross lambert

Hi Bill, Again the name of Mike Shank, haunts with its falsification. I still don't have a Vic Siam, I am very careful in the search. This information is important for this acquisition. Thanks. Regards Lambert

Hi All Today is 1 year that I am part of this Forum. I am very grateful and I'm learning a lot with you all. Very grateful. Lambert :lol:

Hello John. Yes now I understand better. Even with a setting almost correct, are false clasp. It became clear to me. In 1985 I had 10 years of age. : D Lambert

Resurrecting a very old topic .. I have this mini group. with the Cross of Combatant Vichy. I found it very interesting.

It may have been built later, but all seem to me claps from the same manufacturer? "Claps" correct 11th Engineering: Cambrai Lys St. Mihiel Meuse - Argonne defensive Sector other Somme offensive (17th, 148th Pursuit Squadron, 27th, 30th, 33rd Div.) Ypres-Lys (27th, 30th, 37th, 91th Div) Verdun (not official) In the document itself shows only the claps of the Engineering Corps. others were added later .. "the communication was numbered engrs. in applying for you victory medal you are entitled to bars according as to wasther you served in any one of the above datas. If you desire to have your discharge notice amended you may send it to the adjuntant general office, washington, with a statement showing what additional battle participations you are entitled to other those shown on your discharge notice, the Victory Medal regulations entitle the holders to one bar or star for each battle and one bar ou star for a defensive sector, regardless of the number of defensive sectors at which the holder participated."
