Rogi Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 It seems a tad too new for me, but then again I'm not the authority on Medal Bars but anyway just thought of throwing it out there.Its in pretty amazing condition if its reallllllly old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 Well, it's not the condition of medals in the bar (they all came from 30s) that I am worried about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogi Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Well, it's not the condition of medals in the bar (they all came from 30s) that I am worried about I mean the connecting things that connect the medals to make it a bar, its pretty new The medals themselves look old Its just odd how they are attached to me at least :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JapanX Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 Is it the combination? It is the combination To be more precise the combination of 4th class orders with medals from early 30s + :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JapanX Posted December 21, 2013 Author Share Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) Could you be a little more specific? No problem! What we have here is "4th class rising sun + 4th class sacred treasure" So we are talking about colonel (theoretical max)/ lieutenant colonel/ major (theoretical min) This is why I think such bar (authentical one ) should have (at the very least!) Showa enthronement medal + (very possible) 14-20/14-15 + WWI medal + (possible) Taisho enthronement medal.

utopis Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Ah I see. Looking at the Manchukuo pictures thread I have to agree with you absolutely. (Manchukuo helps the dating to 30-eraly 40s). Everyone with a 4th or even 5th class has at least the Showa enthronement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
