RT99 Posted March 24, 2013 #151 Posted March 24, 2013 Here are two miniature medal groups in my collection. The first: Is this a fairly normal combination or is there anyway to narrow down the recipient?
4STARCHRIS Posted March 24, 2013 #153 Posted March 24, 2013 On the mini medals in post 139. I don't think I ever remember seeing a Philippine Order of Military merit medal. A very nice mini medal set. 4starchris
Stuart GI Posted March 24, 2013 #154 Posted March 24, 2013 My first post and first miniature medal bar. I aquired it several years ago in Washington State. Unknown recipiant. One of the larger ones I've ever seen. Hard to find WW1 bars these days. Hope you enjoy. What is the last one? The next to last is the Military Order of the World Wars. Also what is the green one next to the Armed Forces Reserve Medal? Mike
uniformcollector Posted March 29, 2013 #155 Posted March 29, 2013 Here are General Fred Mahaffey's minis:
jmpmstr Posted March 30, 2013 #156 Posted March 30, 2013 Nice mini valor bar mounted on a Meyer clasp.
Brig Posted July 30, 2013 #158 Posted July 30, 2013 Outstanding set of USMC minis that sold a few days ago for 424 on eBay...sadly not to me
TLeo Posted July 30, 2013 #159 Posted July 30, 2013 Mini medals on a Marine Major General's uniform I picked up recently. Veteran of WW2, Korea, and Vietnam.
Adam R Posted July 31, 2013 #160 Posted July 31, 2013 Captain Halsey Powell, USN. The DSM and British DSO were both for WWI. Powell died in 1939 so these minis must date prior.

nbolinger Posted August 7, 2013 #165 Posted August 7, 2013 i GOT MINIATURE FEVER!! THE RIDGEWAY GROUP WILL BE IN MY DREAMS TONIGHT! WOW This is Colonel Gustave Porges miniature group.
4STARCHRIS Posted August 7, 2013 #172 Posted August 7, 2013 What a great set of some very rare miniature medals. Are these in your collection. If so how long have you had them? 4starchris
nbolinger Posted August 7, 2013 #173 Posted August 7, 2013 They are in my collection for now and ive had them about 10 hours LOL. Thanks for the positive comments, i have never seen the japanese medal before, cant figure that one out.
12A54 Posted August 7, 2013 #174 Posted August 7, 2013 Question - what is the order of precedence with foreign awards? Is it alphabetical as in protocol, or is there some kind of ranking by level of award?
nbolinger Posted August 7, 2013 #175 Posted August 7, 2013 Great Question! Seems like English Medals are always in the front?
