Order of the rising sun 3rd class, real or fake???

[cxu19]

Hi Everyone,

Is anyone able to tell if this 3rd class Order of the Rising Sun is real or fake?

And also how much approximately is it worth?

Also, is anybody able to tell approximately when this item was from? It does not come with letters or documents.

Thanks

That one is a real postwar version, the same that Clint Eastwood received. Read the following threads for more.

Yes,authentic.The case lettering,the watered ribbon.The gold gilt on the medal is actually in pretty good condition.As far as I know it is very difficult skill-wise and even illegal within Japan to replicate these orders.

The seller asks for $300.

Considering it has its original rosette and its a 3rd class,but again its the post war type not pre war....Mmmm 200-250,maybe what I would pay?Very debatable.
