TLHSS Posted August 5, 2018 Share #1 Posted August 5, 2018 This was on display at the Paris Island museum. There have been other posts of the medal, but I didn't find one of the molds. Thanks ... Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warguy Posted August 5, 2018 Share #2 Posted August 5, 2018 Now that is pretty interesting. What museum are these displayed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brig Posted August 6, 2018 Share #4 Posted August 6, 2018 It's my understanding that both original molds broke, hence they small production runs. Did you see the damage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLHSS Posted August 8, 2018 Author Share #5 Posted August 8, 2018 Brig, I couldn't see any damage, but you got me curious. I'll send a note to the curator and see if I get a response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLHSS Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share #6 Posted August 15, 2018 Here was the response I received from the Paris Island Museum:"According to some sources, the original mold broke and was replaced with a second mold. Presumably, ours is the second mold." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinley100 Posted November 11, 2018 Share #7 Posted November 11, 2018 was the suspension ring cast as part of the mold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
