fukuoka Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) As stated in the item description (and also in my history of the War Wound Association), blue enamel signifies an executive officer (幹部・役員章 kanbu yakuinshou) in the association.

kaguyahime Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Hello, gentlemеn! Here come three another afterwar Association Merit Badges. The two of them are with blue enamel, one - green enamel. All the badges are of the same size. The blue enamel Merit badges are: "53 years Visit of The Empereur and The Empress" and "63 уеаrs Anniversary Ceremony". For both - "Toumei" mark on the reverse, round pin hook, white metal (not aluminium). The green enamel Merit badge is: «48 years Visit of The Empereur and The Empress». No "Toumei" mark. The hook for pin is different, more simple. The colour of metal (not aluminium) is "warm" - like silver with patina, not that much "cold-white" as the blue enamel badges are.

Gordon Craig Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Thanks Graham. In retrospect I should have started a new thread with this request. I posted it here as it is being sold as a WWII Wound Badge. Regards, Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
