drclaw Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Very nice, Chris, thanks for sharing! It's in superb condition. Always thought this was the most distinctive medal designed by Japan / Manchukuo. Like a Klingon Bird of Prey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gensui Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 Very nice, Chris, thanks for sharing! It's in superb condition. Always thought this was the most distinctive medal designed by Japan / Manchukuo. Like a Klingon Bird of Prey I feel more attracted to the competitors – "may the force be with you!"
