There is no story there. Even I know what I am buying I might also had a bad experience.

These are the sellers which with my friends in Wehrmacht Group and my Turkish Group found out that they were and are not selling what they claim, so I decided to warn new people to be aware of what they are selling. If you like you can check these sites which were listed by the last two sellers mentioned in the list:

Hello,

He might have been on another ship before but have it while he was serving in this ship or he was working at the HQ. This certificate is not one of the 30.10.1918 ticket type documents which were distributed that day and given also to those who were not in the theatre, this is a document prepared by the Ottoman authorities. So IMO, I can not say why, but he was awarded this medal.

Hello,

After the foundation of the Turkish Aeroplane Assc. in 1925 this medal was established for those who contributed money to buy new planes. A) Those who gave 30 TL cash or 50 Liras in a year : bronz  B: 75 TL or 100 in a year: Silver, C: 200TL cash or 250 liras in a year in installments: Gold and finally D: 2500 cash or 3000 TL in a year: Murassa (medal decorated with diamonds)

The plane on the medal represents the plane (model: Vecihi K-6)  produced by Vecihi Hürkuş in 1924.

First one shown below is the photo of a murassa medal given to Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and the first woman aviator in Turkey Sabiha Gökçen.

The second one is the silver Turkish Tayyare Cemiyeti Madalyası (Ertuğrul Kasacı Collection) and its original box.

Best wishes
