Tim B Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Not something I normally collect, but I really liked the design after seeing one pictured in a brochure for "The Military Advisor", winter 2002/2003 issue. I do not have the issue.There is no date stamped on the piece however, I see the number "22" lower center and wonder if this means 1922? Anybody know for sure? I do see the front design changed over time and eventually the reverse as well.Anyone else collect these medals?Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim B Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 The Medallic Art Company of New York made these and these are stamped bronze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim B Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 (edited) Here's a couple more that I do not own, but are currently on eBay. The first one is dated 1925 and as you can see the reverse matches the first one shown in this thread.The date is left of the girl's back under the "M".

Tim B Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 This one is supposedly from the 1950's, but I am not sure. You can see that the reverse has changed by this time as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
