My only contact is Mr. Earl Honeycutt, I just send some images and info to him about the unknown medal that are not seen in reference books and also help him for his 2nd edition which will be done for the next 2 to 3 years i think.

another type same material broken but re glue Do not know if those are trial version???

Thank you Mr. Nick I think it takes more than 10 years to collect it. those in the photo are still not complete. there are still more variation out there most of them are not in the book. like this medals Also during the Corregidor and Bataan occupation in Philippines. two types of Media/ Journalist propaganda medals in Philippines. Can see some sample of there news paper like this one it is like a Bakelite material, weight is x5 lighter than the bronze ver.

Oh i see thank you for the explanation noted

haha it's true funny a professional seller - did his own announcement at the medal forum - attach the website of the previous auction history - did some shill bidding

the seller is planing to have his own minimum price... not a fair auction price.
