Ed_Haynes Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 It is really hard to tell about these early-nineteenth centiury embroidred breast stars.1- They were never very standard in the best of circumstances.2- They are so similar to the horse-blanket stars used by so many mounted units.3- They require expert knowledge in embroidery techniques and cloth that most medal collectors do not have (at least not me).4- They have been widely and well faked (and expertly aged) by our friends in Pakistan.Like Leigh, I have no clue.
