fukuoka Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 That being said, Nick, no cases or award documents have ever been found, correct? Why is this? If anyone has a picture, post it ASAP!And, indeed, this medal is still hard to find compared to many of the other official Japanese medals, so calling is scarce or rare is not wrong, IMO.
JapanX Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 It's rare of course! Especially when we compare it with our usual banal medals. And yes, still no cases (except wrapper that we saw) and no docs. I know what you are thinking about Rich "Never really issued" It is indeed possible ...
Gensui Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Nick, Looks like the material of medal in post 243/244 is different. It doesn't look like the "ordinary" bronze one. Or is it only bad view on picture? BR, Chris
JapanX Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Chris, I think partly this is because of the light (but I believe we can see yellowness that is so dear to your heart ) + medal was covered in deep black patina, so seller decided (like she does it from time to time ) to do some presale cleaning (I think special cleaning agent for bronze). Voilà tout
Gensui Posted September 21, 2013 Posted September 21, 2013 Thanks, Nick! "special cleaning agent for bronze" - what sense...!
JapanX Posted October 12, 2013 Posted October 12, 2013 Check out this piece No claw suspension is sight
JapanX Posted October 12, 2013 Posted October 12, 2013 Seller wrote: "there is no sign that this example has ever had a suspension and it may have been awaiting a suspension at the end of the war or otherwise have found its way out of the manufacturers before the suspension was fitted"
Dieter3 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 How about this one? Something doesn't seem quite right with the medallion. What do you guys think? No bidders, I am suspicious. http://page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n127204523
JapanX Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Who wouldn't?! By such crappy photos nothing can be said with certainty...
Dieter3 Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 I'm sure a lot of you have already seen this. This just doesn't look right: http://www.ebay.com/itm/JAPANESE-CHINA-INCIDENT-COMMEMOARTIVE-MEDAL-WW2-/281371657092 And so far, the bids would seem to agree.... (?)

Gensui Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) Seems like official documents from a Japanese archive. Do you have any sources-information on this wonderful documents? BR, Chris Edited January 16, 2017 by Gensui
