Hi Brian,
It's good to hear from you again. I know what you mean about some collectors pontificating and being aggressive as well as others trying to buy the medals from you. I've only sold one medal to a man who ended up presenting to the original recipient. Recently I have been approached by another regarding a new Zealand Vietnam pair, and yet another whose grandfather's uncle's medals grace my collection. Both were gracious, but I was firm that I would not sell, but if I did, if contact them and they don't know me other than by my moniker Azyeoman.
I am looking forward to reading your about your new acquisitions!
All the best, John

Yes maybe a misake on my side to use my name on Forums.
Will be on Night Shift in a few weeks time and will hopefully manage to add one or two to the album.
Your collection blows me away...and I was looking earlier at your amazing German collection. Trully awesome to say the least. I have a very small collection of German medals, we do not see too many out here.
Regards
Brian

Major John Tamplin, MBE, TD was a past President of OMRS and an author of several books on medal collecting, he received his MBE for services to the field of medals. He was always willing to help other collectors in research. He was a gentleman and will always be remembered by members of OMRS & OMSA. Rest in Peace.
