Does anyone have any opinions on this cross? Real? Fake? What say you gentlemen?

Thanks, Gents. I appreciate all of the good information ~ NGL

Okay. THanks.

I'll be the first to admit that I don't know doodly-squat about British medals. Can someone please tell me what this is?

No one has looked? No one has an opinion?

Does anyone have any comments on this piece? Real? Fake? Sorry for the inconvience of having to click on the document. It was the only way I could post the photos on the thread/

I can't speak for the one I didn't buy, but the "star" is a normal sized medal. Truth is, I'd hate to get hit in the face with it.

Thank you Megan. That's pretty much what I thought it was. NGL

Today I bought the cross on the left from a guy on WAF. What can you folks tell me about these?

Thank you, Gentlemen, for all of your useful information. Simple, when you see pictures of what you're talking about.

Could someone please explain to me what the difference is between a "Type A" 1870 EK II, and a "Type B" 1870 EK II. Thank you.

Tell you the truth I didn't even realize that we are talking about Vietnam War medal.

So you are interested in so-called

Memorial Medal of Honor of the Republic of China Military Assistance Group to the Republic of Vietnam

According to this source (p.751)

http://books.google.ru/books?id=qh5lffww-KsC&pg=PA751&lpg=PA751&dq=republic+of+taiwan+medal+for+vietnam&source=bl&ots=jBIWA5yuTA&sig=ReyW5Jd3_ouXnZofdX4ZIRU80Mo&hl=ru&sa=X&ei=bbF-UqLlF-ue4gS62YDgCg&ved=0CDoQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=republic%20of%20taiwan%20medal%20for%20vietnam&f=false

these medals indeed were issued, but I personally never seen one.

That would be the one I'm looking for.

I am afraid this is impossible since it's fantasy fake.

Your should be on a look out for pieces like this one

Best,

The Republic of China did not issue a medal to it's People who served in South Vietnam?

Does anyone have a clue as to where one could find a real one?

Thanks, Gents. Appreciate the advise.

This is listed on evilBay. Is it real, or is it a fake?

Would this award have been given to the NK military that served in Vietnam?

Here are the (hopefully) better shots.

I'll try, but I'm at work right now. No camera. Thanks.

I recently bought one of these. I understand that this is a combat award, but I am pretty ignorant concerning Asian awards. Can anyone fill me on on this?

No one has an opinion?

Any comments on this bar? Is it real? Is it fake? Please advise.

No it isn’t a neck award. I am at work right now, so I don’t have access to the medalbar. Here is a picture of the award as it appears on Wikipedia.

Sorry Gents. Apparantly I cannot download pictures of medals on Wikipedia. I'll have to send the pic tomorrow.

I have a Bulgarian award on one of my German medalbars that, according to Wikipedia, is called the "Military Cross for Bravery 2nd. Class". My question is, did this award actually count for anything in the scheme of things, or was this just something that everyone got if their trooptrain happened to pass through Bulgaria on the way to the Front? Any information concerning this inquiry will be greatfully appreciated. Thank you.

Could someone please tell me what exactly a Cordón de la victoria 1936-39 is, and what were the requirements for earning one?
