Finally got the purple heart to match the box I have. These are my U.S. cased medals so far. The ribbon for the purple heart is proving hard to find, as well as the lapel (same for the bronze star)
Finally!

Hi Daniel. Can you post shots of the reverse
of these medals.........?

Of course!
Here you are!
G'day Pryo,
I'm not expert on these, but I have a couple of US medals in my junk pile. These to me are post war issue, the war time ones I have, have the pin assembly sewn on as well, but I stand to be corrected.
Here's the a pic of the assembly from my WW2 PH
Thank you René, thats the current problem. However it cant be to bad, as I have a few empty cases besides those.
Cheers Mate I've a empty air medal coffin box and I'm struggling to find a good medal!by Pryo
Thats next on my list! However I am looking for vietnam era for a unfinished grouping I have!
The medals first posted are likely from the 1990's.
Rene is correct in that they should have a 'slot
brooch' which is sewn onto the ribbons:
Regards,
Steve.
