trakkles Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Hello, what do you think about this group of medals, I believe the aeronautic medal is rare? regards daniel
claudio2574 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Actually only the second medal is for Air Force. The first one is one of the commemorative medals for the war in Spain (the official model was never defined, so there are a number around). The third is for the war in Albania (again no official model defined, there are three of them). The last is for Spain war volunteers (once more no official model defined, I know at least three of this one too). The second medal is the official one for aeronautic merit, three grades (gold, silver, bronze). It was instituted on 27th nov 1927. The official coin from the Royal Mint is very rare. There are private productions also, far less expensive.
IrishGunner Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 So, is this a "group" to someone (possibly an Italian pilot in the Spanish Civil War) or a random lot of unrelated medals?
claudio2574 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 For a 'professional' pilot you should expect other medals too, it could be but looks strange
