Paul R Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 BTW, this is about the actual size of the bar. It is on some sort of padded bar! Based upon the fact that someone could not or would not afford a proffesional bar, not such a bad job!Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Krause Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Your livesavingmedal is more likely a Saxon Friedrich August medal.But still a quite nice selfmade one from the recipient!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Hi Paul, I would agree with Daniel. The width and slightly blue tinge of the stripes suggest a FAM, not lifesaving medal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 Rick and Daniel, Thank you for your input. I do not see any hint of blue in the ribbon... even under the backing material. Is it possible for all signs of the blue pigment to fade(even from the hidden areas)?REgardsPaul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Hunter Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Check out the fade in the FAM ribbons here:http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=3542For that matter, note the way the Saxon green fades too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
