History Man Posted April 25, 2011 Share #1 Posted April 25, 2011 So, i have had success with Craigslist once again. I located a very nice medal grouping belonging to a Lt. Commander. it includes campaign medals, marksman medal, victory medal, and a good conduct medal. i paid $45 for the lot. when i came in the mail i found a little bag of misc items and 2 ribbons from 1923. 3 of the medals came in blue boxes and a customs box came with a USN discharge pin. tell me what you guys think of this awesome grouping! :thumbsup: thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

67Rally Posted April 25, 2011 Share #7 Posted April 25, 2011 This looks to be a normal PTO enlisted group - almost exactly as my grandfather's group. It is a nice group of medals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
husk Posted April 25, 2011 Share #8 Posted April 25, 2011 Well Done! I haven't had much luck with Craigslist, though I've heard some do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
