coastie Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 (edited) Allegedly......... Not mine, no, no, no.Just curious as the engraving looks suspectThe first alarm bell is that this is made by HLP and they didn't have a Government contract during the war. This maybe one of the"Back Door" MoH's sold during the 80's.Now I don't know if replacement medals are given to the recipient engraved or not.Just looked on line and the award to Nicholas Minue was posthumous...hmmm!

Ed_Haynes Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 I'd guess this is a fraudulently engraved HLP "stolen" medal.
Stogieman Posted February 25, 2006 Author Posted February 25, 2006 The whole thing just didn't seem right to me. I have never seen engraving like that. The HLP and no ribbon didn't sit well either.
bigjarofwasps Posted March 8, 2006 Posted March 8, 2006 Just out of interest, how easy/hard are MOH to get hold of? Are modern ones named? Anyone konw where I could get hold of a modern one from?
