claudio2574 Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Hello everybody. I'm proposing not the medal itself, which is the well known Sacchini's version with its envelope, but the temporary authorization to use the medal. This document is not very common, since it was always changed with the official diploma as soon as possible. It is just a small piece of paper, dated 1928 from Perugia in this case.

macchianera72 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Hello Gentlemen, Lorioli Type (short signature) with different suspension device: "angular staffa" The "staffa" does not seem to have traces of welding Anyone knows other Italian Victory Medals with this suspension device? Thank's Macchianera72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macchianera72 Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Hello Gentlemen, The Italian Victory medal unofficial type 3 is very rare... I know only two collectors in Italy who have it, one of this medal is in bronze, the other in white metal, These medals have the "staffa" as a suspension device... The medal in my photo is the one mentioned by Laslo on page 57 (note 18) "The unofficial type 3 obverse design also apears on a Belgian medal of the period. ..." The reverse is blank The suspension device is a ball The ribbon is the same described by Laslo (note 18) and it is the only medal I've seen of this type. Can we consider this medal like "Italian unofficial type 3-A ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidck Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 After much hunting, I completed my collection of the three variants of Lorioli's Italian medal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobW Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Hello David, Don't forget to try and obtain the variety that doesn't have a makers name. It is listed as the official type 4. It is harder to obtain than the other three but is out there in the marketplace. Regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Claudio, I have also seen these initial victory medal authorisation documents glued onto the corresponding diploma for the Italian War Medal 1915-1918 (Medaglia Dell Guerra 1915-1918). There is, as you have suggested, great variety in these authorisation documents. Regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello David, As far as a comparison picture is concerned, if you go back through this particular thread there are numerous pics of all the 4 common varieties. A specific composite picture is at post #15 with a close-up of the two different F.M. Lorioli-Castelli varieties at post #19. I have stopped posting my collection but there are numerous other illustrations in this thread which show the level of detail and differences between the varieties which can help you. Here is a pic of the official 'type 4' (This is not in my collection). Regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidck Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Thanks Rob, I actually do have an example of the Type 4, and three variants of the Lorioli variety. Macchianera seemed to indicate there was a 4th Lorioli variant, which I was unaware of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilco Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Hi macchianera72 - if there is no signature (by which I guess you mean the manufacturer's name) how do we know it is by Lorioli & Castelli? I have one, but always understood that the manufacturer is unknown. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
