dskjl Posted July 25, 2019 Share #1 Posted July 25, 2019 Looks like a cast copy of an early 1949 life saving medal. Box looks good but somebody may have bought a poor cast copy. https://www.ebay.com/itm/cased-early-US-Silver-Lifesaving-medal-by-Anthony-C-Paquet-Slot-Brooch-/283549651392?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=LBhuUSfypg%252FS48Ic00dfUJ%252FxWt0%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmpmstr Posted July 25, 2019 Share #2 Posted July 25, 2019 True but the case is the prize IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dskjl Posted July 25, 2019 Author Share #3 Posted July 25, 2019 True but the case is the prize IMO Completely agree, I was a bidder and lost track of time and missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMariner Posted July 25, 2019 Share #4 Posted July 25, 2019 What do you feel a case is worth ? Worth the final bid of $270? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dskjl Posted July 25, 2019 Author Share #5 Posted July 25, 2019 I would have paid that, but I missed my opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweazy21 Posted July 25, 2019 Share #6 Posted July 25, 2019 I remember seeing this, I would have bid if it was not for the crappy cast medal. Looks like the cast it on sand. Surface looked like sandpaper and not smooth like any other medal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmpmstr Posted July 26, 2019 Share #7 Posted July 26, 2019 What do you feel a case is worth ? Worth the final bid of $270? In that condition, IMO $300-500 at least, but again, if you want or need one bad enough you pay what you need to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirMechanic Posted July 27, 2019 Share #8 Posted July 27, 2019 What time frame would that style of case have been used from and which version/type of silver lifesaving medal would this case be correct for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dskjl Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share #9 Posted July 27, 2019 I think August of 1949 not sure how long the style of box was used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
