Hello People,

What do you think about this medal?

Hmmm, looks a chunky wee chappie - is the photo distorted or is this a scale representation? It just looks a bit "wide".

I don't like the lack of detail to the eagle and the wreath (on both sides). Could be because of a bit of over-polishing, but if that's the case, why hasn't it exposed the base metal? I'd expect some pebbling of the wash with age, but this one just looks a bit crude in places and I'd worry that some of that is down to poor casting. Also, on dimensions I'm not sure if e.g. the border on the LH eagle-facing side is actually bigger than the opposite border on the right?

I think I'd be giving this one a miss to be honest. Sorry!
