JapanX Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 All that I have on this one is that this is 1st class award. Most likely it was issued by uknown (to me it is ) "garrison commander" around 1917. Cheers, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hc8604 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Hi Nick, Looking at the medal.. I noticed there are three holes on top. Probably missing the three stars that usually shows it is 1st class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Hi Nick, Looking at the medal.. I noticed there are three holes on top. Probably missing the three stars that usually shows it is 1st class? Yep, you are of course right about these holes... I wonder what elements are missing. Stars look like very probable variant Cheers, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard LaTondre Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Does anyone have any information regarding this beauty? It would help if I had an image of the reverse. The star is 50mm diameter. Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) Dear JapanX, It could be this : I can't remember where and when I read this information but I think there is a connection with Feng Guozhang. His name "Feng / 馮" use the Chinese character "horse". Yours sincerely, No one Edited January 28, 2023 by No one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
