There is a 4 year one on this same sight if you blow it up and look at it and then look at your ,you will notice small bubbels in your.This is from castting when air has not been forst out of the mold as the medal cooled,the bubbels set up.In the 4 year it is die struck your should be the same.ALL medal are struck not cast it the same way coins are made.Thank & Good Luck Darrell

The suspension loop should be tear drop shaped, not round. The ring to which this is fitted is the wrong shape too.

Cheers, Ade.
