OvBacon Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I have to agree with CCJ. I've never understood why anyone would spend any money (above 30 bucks) on a reproduction/museum copy or whatever euphemisms are out there. But now I understand that if you want to create a specific medal bar and a medal is extremely rare you would. Although I do really believe that if something is worth the price to you it is worth it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The medals were only awarded in gold. However, gold-plated silver medals could be obtained privately.

waldo Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 These medals are very rare in their original form. There are good fakes, even in gold. I am aware of 78 original minted medals. VG Walter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waldo Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 (edited) That will be difficult. I don't know anyone who wants to sell an original at the moment.

I hope you or someone can help me find another COPY of this medal. I know they are out there since I have bought two.

filfoster Posted February 25 Author Share Posted February 25 Waldo: Vielen Danke. I think this is just a bit too expensive. I'd go 150 Euros but there is no 'best offer' for it yet. I am watching it. Thank you for letting me know. I appreciate it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filfoster Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 Walter: That is a good suggestion that I didn't follow. After thinking on it and seeing a real one listed for 10x that price, I just bought it. Please accept my thanks again for helping to find it! Be well my friend!
