I think I had a little luck.

I bought a Japanese WWI Victory Medal, with case. for a little over $ 102.00 ..

The auction ended well, there's more for faster shipping.

well, I may have made a good business. in view of other prices already achieved ...

Post this order it is the second world war?

how to identify the period, if she WWII previous or subsequent to WWII

Congratulations Gavin!

Beautiful decoration. I'm thinking, if I start buying Japanese Orders .. I'm lost!

As a beginner, I have to stop spending so much money too .

2) A 7th Class early Meiji, complete with bow rosette.

The ribbon and rosette has faded, and there is some damage to the base of the case. But a lovely piece given the history attached to it, and a lucky ebay find.

Great Order! excellent!

congratulations

lambert

Beautiful.

Great blog too by the way! Very interesting ODM, many of which I've never come across before so enjoyed learning about them.

Hi Gavin

Thank you for visiting my blog,.

I'm interested mainly in Orders and Medals of World War I and also Brazil WWI and WWII.

I started collecting just nine months, so I have a lot to learn.

Yes, small mint mark and I am guessing it is early 20th century from the overall design of the medal.

But I'm still expanding my knowledge base on these orders so I can't say that with any authority.

Hello Gavin.

My (4th Class) is identical to yours.

:love:

Congratulations on the purchase!

Lambert

Yes Paul . there still time to correct this error.

I want to share with all the pride we feel in our war heroes.

This is a collage with the anthem of our expedition in italy.

Unfortunately I have no way of knowing how many were because the medal was awarded to civilians in the war effort.

In the decree of 1944 the Medal of War was approved only for senior officials.

But it was also granted to American instructors (NCO), but not for the soldiers and sergeants Brazilians.

I will never understand this injustice. ..

lambert

Decree No. 6795 of August 17, 1944, regulated by Decree No. 16821 of 13 October 1944.

Purpose: To reward the officers on active duty, reserve and retired, and civilians who have rendered outstanding service of any nature relating to the war effort, preparation of troops, or the particular tasks performed by the Government, within or outside the country was also granted the military of the United Friends of hosts or Allied cooperating national war effort.
