Motorhead Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Another old one-the medal itself is a very nice example with the "C" or "U" at the eye ring. The ribbon is a bit strange-in hand it's feels like thin,stiff cotton. The colour has faded out,but this is hard to see on the pics.If I look at the inner part of the ribbon I can see the difference. The whole thing is sewn on the medal with a different ribbon(looks like the ribbon for a mini-but not the KDM NC one...) So I think the ribbon is old,but not old enough to be the original one to the medal.Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VtwinVince Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Very nice medal, made from "Gusseisen", I believe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRBeery Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Micha, As I remember my ribbon has a fragile silk feeling to it. I try not to mess with it. The larger ribbon seems correct. I will swear that I see a number 3 on the first picture of your medal. A possible casting mold mark or my eyes getting bad? I see no evidence of this on mine.Chet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
