marrauder Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Hello gentlemen, I bought this beauty at the end of summer. I was very busy that time so I hadn´t space to torture seller with additional info, as I always use to do. All I know is that it is medal of some woman association, awarded for their support during Russo-Japanese war. Every additional info (mainly the name of that association and number issued) would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JapanX Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Well the seller is right! It's a commemorative piece for Russo-Japanese war. It was issued by patriotic women's association (aikoku fujinkai). The emblem of this association is on the cover of the box. The number of these is not known and I believe never will be. Nice boxed specimen Miro! Cheers, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marrauder Posted December 29, 2011 Author Share Posted December 29, 2011 Thanks for info, mainly for the name of association. Yes, it is very nice set, I am very happy with that. Miro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marrauder Posted December 29, 2011 Author Share Posted December 29, 2011 Thanks, Dieter. I like also the fact, that it looks to be personalised by handwriting kanji on the carton box. Maybe someone will appear here who will be able to translate it. (I don´t even know which side is up, hehe) Miro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dieter3 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Hi Miro, You have it correct! It says "Commemorative Medal" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
