Hello I ordered this and would like to know if it is real or at least the likely hood of it being real. I ordered from a reputable source as far as I am aware. Thanks. Will update with more pictures when I receive it.

I'll wait for the better pictures for sure . They make very good fakes of this and the 4 yr long service medals .

Already ordered. Just under 700. Ill upload the pictures when it arrives. The site I bought it from is actually advertised on here. I am not sure if the rules allow me to say which one exactly.

I don't really study these, but I can make a suggestion.

Thank you. Yes I have read through about 10 posts from the search bar but have not seen this one. I believe that my medal would be considered a type 2 from the research I have done.

It is being delivered today and I will upload more pictures. If any areas on the medal are especially important for a close up just let me know before or after.

Good straight on clear pictures showing the stippling and the lettering . Like this--

These are the best pictures my phone can take, right here. But if you need a specific area just let me know, I notice some grime obscures certain small details I will have to have it cleaned.



I notice a slight inward slope on the left upper 8 of the pictures you posted. Could be the lighting, different type, or nothing at all?

Actually when I use a flashlight I am pretty sure I notice it on mine as well.

What material do you use to clean it? I use toothpaste for metals.
