Japanese Order of the Rising Sun 7th class , but Japanese isn't my thing so I can't say if its good or not .
Cheers
This is the eighth class of the Rising Sun. The seventh class would have green/purple enamel.
Nice find!
Indeed, this is the eighth class medal. Nice AAF patches as well.........!

I saw one of those on fleabay the other day, but I didn't follow, not sure how much it went for. That one had no writing on the back though. It is a neat looking medal
The one you saw was not this medal, but perhaps something similar.
They all have characters on the reverse.
An eighth Class medal without case should sell for around
$30-$40 IF it's a genuine silver original. There are cheap
pewter/pot metal copies at $10-$15.........

Steve.
Sixth and Seventh Class 'Order Of The Rising Sun' medals.........

Steve.
Indeed Paul, there are lots of these on ebay - and likely some
replicas as well. They are beautiful medals.........!

Steve.
