JapanX Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 英语不好，看不懂你写的！ 顶上标牌 “参战纪念” 是指汪系国民政府对英美宣战的参战。 Thanks JC This is exactly what I was asking for (inscription on the medal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drclaw Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 Very nice JC! I especially like your TWO Peaceful National Foundation Medals. Very rare indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcwater Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Very nice JC! I especially like your TWO Peaceful National Foundation Medals. Very rare indeed! 我也非常喜欢它们。 设计样式和质感都非常让人着迷。 非常中国。我相信它们都是中国造。 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 非常中国。我相信它们都是中国造。 "I believe they are all made in China" Could be, could be JC... But James Peterson was certainly right about one thing - the ribbon for 1942 Visit Medal looks 100% japanese ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But James Peterson was certainly right about one thing - the ribbon for 1942 Visit Medal looks 100% japanese 我认为访日章可能就没有真正实发过。 就我近10多年来见到的访日章，带盒子的、不带盒子的甚至没有绶带的一共也不超过10个。而且都出自日本和美国。 在前几年日本YAHOO首次出现访日章以前，对此章的认识一片空白。中国国内从没有出现过，甚至根本没人知道有这种章的存在。 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drclaw Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 Thanks JC, I will try to translate. JC says the 1942 Visit to Japan Medal is mysterious and very rarely appears. When it does appear, it is only in Japan or the United States. For many years in China, it was not even known that this medal existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Also I think he is saying that the ribbons we see might not be original to this medal? Is this possible? I think no, since I saw pretty salty specimens with pretty salty (and same) ribbons (simply check the medal ribbon in post 5 ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With or without ribbon this medal is pretty rare - no doubts about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drclaw Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 JC mentions it was unknown in China for many years, and only appears for sale in Japan or the US. That, together with the strong resemblance to Japanese awards (box, ribbon, etc), suggests it was commissioned, manufactured and issued in Japan during the visit.

drclaw Posted June 11, 2013 Author Share Posted June 11, 2013 This is a beauty and interesting to see the seal on the presentation case. Any sense as to how many were minted? Most would have survived in Japan I'd imagine as you wouldn't want to be found holding one in China after the Japanese surrender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drclaw Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 Thanks JC. What JC is saying is that all of the medals that have appeared in recent years have been in Japan, certainly those that are complete. Many years ago, a single rusty / damaged specimen was unearthed in China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 This is a beauty and interesting to see the seal on the presentation case. Sold for ¥106774 :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drclaw Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 Wow, I was tipping maybe USD 3000. This is more than three times my estimate. But shouldn't be surprised given its beauty and rarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
