Central medallions

Exemplary 4th class № 132

Rene, this medal definitely was issued in 1916 during reign of Ahmed Shah. But the correct name of this medal is still unknown to us ...

Exactly! "So called" ... Thanks a lot! Appreciate it!

Paul, very very nice medal! Thanks for posting! But I am afraid this medal has very little in common with one that Rene posted ;)

Very interesting pieces Lars!

I agree. Current situation on the market for chinese decorations sometimes reminds me market for soviet awards in early 00s ...

Yep. Unfortunately the prices for Imperial and Republic decorations are on the rise...

Cool photo Karsten! "Medal for Bravery"/"Медаль за храбрость" If it is indeed gold medal, then it should be 2nd class

According to the seller inscription reads "February 10, 1940. Manchukou. Mudanjiang. Adachi unit. Hisashige party. The 11th aeronautic communication regiment. Army aeronautic communication soldier. Mr Motioka Kikuo"

Nice!

Another example of gigantic badge. This time it is inscribed one

1253?! i.e. 1837?! Are you talking about medal of this design?! Or you were talking about the earliest example of 7th/8th class Order of the Lion and Sun (like this one from Naser al Din Shah epoch)? P.S. Meanwhile we don`t know even the exact name of this medal ... Because if its name indeed "Medal for valour/bravery" then how Livery Porter and guy from Royal Household were able to get one?

They call these boxes in Japan 日本軍 野戦用 勲章ケース Japanese army field medal case

Now very interesting field case for sacred treasure
