Thailand Medal?

[Linasl]

Greetings All.

I bought a number of Thailand medals, but one I cannot identify. Can you please take a look at the photos and let me know what it is? Any info would be appreciated.

Thank you. Linas

Hi Linas,

This is an early type Thai Order of the Crown pendant, 4th class, with a substituted suspension (not sure from where) with perhaps a ribbon from the Turkish Order of the Mejidie ?

Thanks Dave.

Hope to get more insight.

Take care. Linas

Linas,

I suppose that it just a kludge to make it easier to sell. There is no Thai reason for the wrong ribbon.

Probably true Dave.

I will be selling it with te caveats you mentioned.

Thanks. Linas

Linas,

Another option is to try to repair the back suspension ring, and then get a replacement ribbon (which is relatively common).

Rgds,

Thanks Dave,

But two things:

1. I don't know where to get the replacement ring or ribbon.

2. I am a seller on eBay. I try not to keep medals in inventory, as this is how I make my living. I will post it with the caveats you mentioned (direct quote - hope you don't mind). Thus, I am being 100% upfront.

Take care. Linas
