Sampo Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 Hi Does anyone know if this polish army medal is real or a copy. And maybe the manufacturer? Cheers Sampo
BalkanCollector Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 I'm far from being an expert on Polish medals but it looks alright to me, mostly because it looks well made.
Lukasz Gaszewski Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 Certainly a copy. Look at the "cloudy" surface of the reverse. I guess it was cast from an original medal rather than struck. To make you happier I will tell you that some recipients wore similar replicas instead of the original medals.

I stand corrected and thank you for the clarification! An excellent quality on these replicas have deceived me.
