      Hi.

      The medal is from the same seller that offers the Portuguese medal ??The ribbon is from the same lot.

      It is another "modern reproduction". Note the "signature of the sculptor" details coarse, among other details in the date 1914 - 1918 not very clear. Definitely not good.

      Cheers

      Dear All,
      I just was offered a Portuguese VM and tried to ID it, but have to admit that I'm a little confused by the different types.
      It looks somewhat like Reproduction type-4?
      I would be very thankfull for your advice!

      Hi

      Replica "modern", I think it is not worth it, there are still many Type 2 official. It's worth waiting a bit longer. That's just my opinion.

      Cheers

      Spain remained neutral during the war but many Catalan volunteers enlisted in the French Army, Belgian and Foreign Legion .

      It is related to the Great War. The medal is very scarce, but there are many recent copies. So be careful.

    5. Argentina remained Neutral during the First World War, I have no information about Argentine volunteers, except the volunteers of European decendence (Germans, French, English, etc.) who received the call of the mother country.

      I researched a little more, The medal has no connection with the of World War I.

    7. Hi Davidck

      At some time I posted something about models of the Victory Medals Italia, found in the Italian book on their medals (immagine Scarpa-Sézanne "Le decorazioni del Regno di Sardegna e del Regno d'Italia - Commemorative - vol.2" - Tav. 25 ) .. I believe they were not approved for manufacture. And it is possible that it has never been produced beforehand.

      But I do not have more information about the "landing victory". I have a friend who is Italian and collector of Medals. I'll talk to him, maybe he might know something.

      All the best

      Does anyone know the status of the "landing victory" medal listed in Laslo's book?  He noted that it might have been an athletic award, which makes me wonder why he bothered including it at all, and I note it is not in Michels' book.  Has this one been shown to not be a victory medal?

      Hi

      There is some image of it?
