Thank you!

well if it is gold which I think it is, it is a rare medal.  Congrats on a pretty good score.  I would value yours at around ~$1200, in my humble opinion.  I have picked up good deals at shows before and the low-grade finishes are easy to mimic each other when well worn.   The back of the pin really looks gold in the pics. But even if bronze, it looks good to me. Neat medal regardless.

It was sold as a bronze but I agree, especially on the back that it does look more gold than bronze 

hello, I have one of these in gold that is really worn.  I bought it from a very reputable dealer.  I must say, your looks very similar to mine.  I wonder if your example is a worn gold example.  My backplate looks just like yours...  my apologies if I am seeing yours wrong...    But regardless mine was made by a different maker but the backplate is identical...

I had Joes and I had Stoney. Stoney could stand all by himself and he had better hands for holding guns. From my parents’ perspective I am sure he was way cheaper and had a lot of gear. 

Looking for opinions on this bronze CCC everything seems correct except the backing plate is not magnetic. Not sure if that’s a red flag?

Sold all mine, except for the space capsule. Should had kept the space suit and helmet. 

Got these from a nephew of a sailor that brought them home. Thanks for any help with translations. Sorry if I have them in the wrong position.  Ken

Hello,   Since Fanta was mentioned and is related to Coke; here is a Fanta bottle in my collection.  Sorry for the bad picture but the bottle is carefully balanced in an inter-artifact display and would be a pain to take out of the case.   Mine is dated I think 1942 or 43.  Fanta bottle are pretty scare.  Most are totally clear.  This is the 'aqua' variant which seems harder to find.  I prefer the look of aqua and really had to look to find one.     I think the aquas were made at an odd ball glass factory.  I saw a gorgeous non-dug deep aqua bottle being sold out of Austria and wondered if the aquas were made there.     My dug aqua came from a relic digger in Poland.    It would be neat to know where the aquas were made if anyone knows... Cheers!
