    Hello, gentlemen!

    From the book of László: 

    b. By Royal Decree of 26 March 1922, to personnel, under certain conditions, designated by a Chief of Corps or another award granting authority.

    I can not understand who it is!

    Yours faithfully

    Hello Oliver,

    A nice darker patina Reimer model you have posted. It is great that you also post diameter and planchet thickness because that helps out all the vic collectors to see if there are differences to item in their collection.

    Regards,
    Rob

    Best regards,

    It looks to be a good example, with the designer Paul Dubois name on the obverse. The ribbon is a nice example of the Belgian 'sine-wave' watering, and it has the two-pronged mounting.

    Bonjour,

    Pour moi, c'est un montage fantaisiste pour gagner de l'argent. Il existe de nombreuses fausses assemblées de médailles interalliées.

    La victoire ailée n'est pas celle de la Belgique.

    Cordialement,

    Jean-Michel

    Hi!

    I believe that this medal is a fantasy!

    But the type of metal is suitable for the time of the great war!

    With respect!

    Hello everyone, what do you make of these two Belgian unofficial type 3's?

    The one on the left is 37mm diameter and 1.1mm thickness at the 3 o'clock. The one on the right is 36.6mm diameter and 1.4mm thick.

    I have my own thoughts but interested to hear what everyone thinks....

    sumserbrown,

    Interesting medals, I have seen the one on the left before as an unofficial medal with a smaller suspension ball. But never the one on the right.

    Hello summersbrown,

     

    Nothing unusual there on both examples. It is not unusual to see all the Belgian strikes with a wide variety of ball suspenders in differing widths. Given the large number of medal manufacturers and quantities produced there is a corresponding wide variety in the diameter of the balls as well.

     

    It's good to have variety especially when compared side-by-side with other examples.

     

    Regards,

    Rob
