Thanks Archie. Yeah it is a swine to get and I foolishly assumed that since he bought it from a well known UK company and was no fool himself that it would be good. I received the 20 medals over the weekend and started on checking them all. I began with this one since it is the rarest and saw issues with the type photos in both books I have. Uggh what a ruin of a perfect day!

You think its good Archie? I was concerned about the lack of detail where the ear should be, the shapes of some of the fingers and the birds forehead. I'm afraid of these things once they get to the rare ones and I thought it looked a bit like a Laslo Type 1 Reproduction.

A collector friend of mine recently passed away and over the weekend I purchased his InterAllied medal collection from his estate. I am just now going through it and everything seems fine but I wanted your thoughts on this Siam since it's the rarest one he had (no Brazil sorry).

Thanks Nick. I suspected as much when I saw how much it resembled the Taiwanese medal. Luckily enough it came in a box of other stuff so I am not out anything on it. Cheers, Geof

Hi Guys looking for some help on this one? It looks like a fake that mimics part of the Taiwanese commemorative medal. Help? Thanks Geof
