Hello Bill,

Apart from the fact that it is suspended by Italian ribbon I think it looks okay. Probably just a trial or other variety.

Rob

Hello All

Or just a repair on the medal, it may be simpler than a new variation

Remembering that, I have not seen of a Medal type, with marks on the rim.

Lambert

Hi Bill

Fabulous !! congratulations!

Did you know that this kind made ​​in France is more rare than that manufactured in Czech.?

I realized that he has the letters thicker than the Czech version.

Lambert

Well, what I can tell you is that no need to rush ..

think search and research is much more interesting .. is when we finally got a prize, it is nicer ..

Lambert

I must say that I am also very pleased to join this forum, especially this topic on the MV.

:beer: :beer:

I recently saw a sample sale here in Brazil. for about $ 1600 U.S. dollars. rasoavel much more than in the UK site ...

yet I hope to find it cheaper (a little). Even more, with my wedding approaching (in October), This depleted my cash reserves.

It was not in my mind has a copy of this, but perhaps for teaching purposes;

Lambert

Hi Rob.

Prices scary!

I think I'll sell some parts to get more money for them.

Lambert

Thanks Nick

I think a copy of this medal would only be possible even in the asian market ... but being a rare item, it is very important to know more about her, not to be fooled by some dishonest dealer ..

Until then I only managed three images of this medal, I can not find elsewhere. Can anyone translate what is written in it?

Regards

Lambert

Hello All,

Accompanied the topic, I remembered a medal rarely seen at auction. It is possible that there selling copies (fakes) of this medal?

Commemorative Medal of Victory of 1918

It was established in November 1918 to commemorate the Allied victory. According to A. Laslo, its largest distribution is in Beijing, November 28, 1918, in a ceremony commemorating the armistice. Assigned to a very limited number of officials, soldiers and civilians, foreigners or Chinese (members legations), is one of the rarest medals on this subject.

Hello Lambert,

Which three are you missing?

Rob

Hi Rob.

These are the medals of Cuba, Brazil and Siam

you see, are the most expensive ..

Lambert

Hello Bill,

Interesting statistics on the ribbons.

Yes, the official greek vic would have come on French ribbon.

The Romanian official vic has also been seen on a French ribbon. The unofficial types 1, 2, 3, and 3a have been seen on a variety of local Romanian produced ribbons. The colours, tones and widths vary as a result.

Regards,

Rob

Hello All

This Vic Romanian, French has the Ribbon, here reported.

You are in very good condition.

Lambert

Thanks Bill and Rob,

Think so too. Get a tape for the latest database.

Lambert

Hi Lambert,

A very nice medal. But that ribbon does look very fragile - will it be easy to find a replacement?

Bill

Hi Bill,

It will not be easy to find a Ribbon original released in good condition, to have seen a replacement ribbon for this medal, but I did not like ..

Lambert

Lambert
