Ynsman Posted July 29, 2020 Posted July 29, 2020 I recently acquired a Japanese Red Cross Special Member's medal in its lacquered case, which has an inscription on the back which I assume is probably the case maker's mark rather than the medal maker's name (the medal has the katakana イon the suspender). Can anyone tell me what the gilt inscription says please? There is also a small paper label on the front which has a rather fuzzy ink inscription on it. I suspect this may be the name of the original owner. Can anyone take stab at what this (obviously much more difficult) inscription might say? Thanks for any help you can give me. Alan

Ynsman Posted July 30, 2020 Author Posted July 30, 2020 As I suspected, the case maker: thank you very much for the identification. Alan
