Good evening Gentlemen,

I have recently bought the following WW1 Chinese medal (see pictures in attachment).

.... BUT I am not too sure about the ribbon though... !

I gather it should be the usual 5-striped-Chinese-flag-like ribbon (black-white-blue-yellow-red).

Could anyone of you confirm?

Regarding this ribbon, does anyone know which medal it is related to?

Cheers,

Jean-Sam.

I didn't know about this WWI medal. What was the award criteria?

I knew of the existence of this medal, the Medal of Panama and this, I have not. ..

Hi

It was created in November 1918 to celebrate the Allied victory. According to A. Laslo, its greatest abundance occurs in Beijing on November 28, 1918, during a ceremony commemorating the armistice (the Forbidden City '). Attributed to a very limited number of employees, military and civilian, (diplomats) Chinese or foreign, is one of the rarest medals on this topic.

Hello Oliver

Yes it is original, Officer Type 1. but the Ribbon is the modern replacement (British)
The price is good, worth it .. then you can change the ribbon by a French.

This veteran of the Foreign Legion in WWI, with their medals.

Hello Paul

Yes it is true.

It's beautiful, they might have to continue manufacturing in private companies as in the case of the French Victory Medal , Type Charles and Pautot-Mattei.

Hello All

Again try to clarify the "obscure" "NOT OFFICIAL ITALIAN VICTORY MEDAL", in which A. Laslo never mentioned in his books. The intriguing that it has photos and information unauthorized medals, as I understand it, were never produced in significant amount .. would just examples for approval? why were they rejected?

Again I came across a photo, taken from the Book of Italian Medals. ("Le decorazioni del Regno di Sardegna and del Regno d'Italia - Commemorative - Vol II")

Here is a picture (unfortunately not of excellent quality) of one of the variants presented in the above table, apparently produced by the company Sacchini (the picture is taken from the volume of Dimitri Bini "Le medaglie ufficiali militari e civili del Regno d'Italia "

The time will tell

Hello to all.

Does anyone know any article about the false Polish Victory medal?

Lambert

Its looks like a copper made from England

Yes ! 100%

Lambert

I guess I should correct, I believe that is not a veteran of WWI, only the Franco-Prussian War, then probably one EK 1870 is missing. Will be a very interesting group when restored .. :love:

Thanks

Lambert

wow! I saw this silver treasure!..

I did a quick search and this medal is estimated between 1200-2400 euros, not bad.

Lambert

Gents.

I usually do not ask these things about prices medals. I saw a group of medals possibly a veteran of the Franco-Prussian War and World War Primera in a kind of old window ... I have not seen rare medals for the price was so high,( $2.235 Euro) .

Is there anything that I have not seen or know this group? any comments?

The site is spectacular ..

Some of these imperial orders and medals some are rare Brazilian could only see in pictures and books. Are very rare, the medals of the Paraguayan War (1864-1870) Mainly medals the war of independence (1822-1824)

Hello David.

I agree with Rob, however there are many fakes of this medal, some are very obvious, others need to be careful. Not EVERYTHING CAN BE CONSIDERED AS "UNOFFICIAL".

Regards.
