JapanX Posted October 17, 2012 Author Posted October 17, 2012 This one was made somewhere between 1900 and 1905
JapanX Posted October 17, 2012 Author Posted October 17, 2012 Interesting postcard from 1905-1906 (looks like colourist knew only one ribbon)

Gensui Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 (edited) Nick, What do you think about the medal, which you posted in #46/#47? Any repaired medal? Have a look at the suspension. Looks like some (old?) tin-"marks"... BR, Chris Edited December 10, 2012 by Gensui
JapanX Posted December 10, 2012 Author Posted December 10, 2012 You don`t trust nobody By this photo it is impossible to say anything with confidence ... Cheers, Nick P.S. Allow me to remind you that you are "looking for Japanese (cased!) War- and Commemorative Medals and award documents"
