    I found two more authentic medals (without ribbon).

    You can have number one for the peanuts of 1,200,000 Yen.

    While the remaining pieces of 9,997 medals (according to Morton & Eden info) are "somewhere" - what do we know about the (quantity) of the ribbon? Were the medals stored at the Osaka mint together with the ribbon? Adjusted?...

    Dude its not "according to Morton&Eden"

    This number came from Peterson

    Where did he get this number?

    Guess it came from the same source as info about 1 000 000 + Kites :whistle:

    Ok, I should had mentioned: according to Morton & Eden auction describtion, which is based on Peterson's published information. :wacky:

    What we have here is another first-rate mystery ;)

    Or simply spoken just a copy, which Peterson was looking at?

    Honestly, I don't belive in any "two prototypes" for the bar. If so, there should be some more bars with the changed writting direction somewhere out there :whistle:

    Well – “viel Feind, viel Ehr’!” and I can live with it! :P

    Seriously, I don’t understand why there were so less critical questions from the world wide community about Peterson?! Seems like everybody is just taking all information without double-checking it or simply look for (alternative) sources…

    To make it right, I am not blaming anybody and I don't want to throw the first stone. But honestly, are there no critical voices out there? Or do I simply overlooked some public discourse?

    Number one is too expensive for you guys? Don't worry, here is Number two for 850,000 Yen:

    #1 AND #2 - too expensive for me! :lol: Considering a ribbon-less one was on YJA! not selling.....

    ... Considering a ribbon-less one was on YJA! not selling.....

    Do you mean the one from post no. 30 (this thread)? -

    I met the seller and know, that he sold this medal.

    That's the one! It finally sold for the asking price. 350,000 much better than 850,000 or 1,200,000!! ;)
