    Default French Black Star medal

    Hello Guys.

    I have recently bought a little group of french medals, and today they have arrived.
    Above all of them, the black star stands out. Honestly, I liked it so much when I saw it that I bought the lot. It seems to be Knight in the Order of the Black Star.
    I did not know anything about this medal until a few days ago, but now I am curious about it.

    Does anyone know what time period it is from?. It seems to be made of silver. It comes along with other medals like the Indochina medal, the CEF medal (Italy), a colonial medal (AOL and Ext. Orient clasps) and the Liberation medal (Afrique, Liberation, and Allemagne clasps. It seems that another one is missing).

    Thanks in advance.
    Regards.

    Very interesting.
    Enough for me to use my Wiki Chi to look at more information.
    I can't help with the dating question.
    But looking it up and the 5 levels has me asking.
    Is it the ribbon that differentiates the level's?


    Also I thought interesting , I was going to fix the images to correct the orientation, But when I clicked to enlarge it fixes the view.

    Hello.

    I have taken a look, but I have been unable to locate any silver stamp.

    Is it important?

    Thanks for your time.
