Aniki Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Hi, can you help me date this group please. Is it genuine or bogus? Many thanks in advance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) Kite is original of course. This variation belong to the 1895-1910s time period. At least three award groups for Russo-Japanese War are known with this type of Kite (all orders formally issued on April 1, 1906) See for example https://asiamedals.info/threads/repaired-kites.23236/#post-349269 But group is bogus of course. 5th class Golden Kite was awarded together with 6th/5th class of Rising Sun order.

Aniki Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share Posted February 13, 2022 Thank you. And the same rule was for treasure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) Golden Kite awarding doesn't "trigger" simultaneous awarding of Sacred Treasure. Sacred Treasure was usually "accompanied" the newly received military rank. Naturally it is hardly possible for the holder of 5th class Golden Kite to have only 8th class Sacred Treasure.

Aniki Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share Posted February 13, 2022 Very interesting. Is there a topic with more info on rules of giving treasures and suns? Like with that military rank promotion with the former? I'd appreciate a lot such knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
