February 15, 20197 yr #1 I picked these up many years back at a flea market. Does anyone know if theyre original or repros?
February 16, 20197 yr #4 Hi Militbuff, They all appear to be original. Perhaps Forum member Hsin C will see this post. He'll be able to confirm my thoughts. Thanks for posting,
February 20, 20197 yr #5 They are copies. They are known as tourist medals. Made for cheap souvenirs for tourists in China. Before I started collecting Chinese medals, I actually bought the bottom right (Order of the Precious Tripod) thinking as real. Lost $10 lol. I finally got a real one later on some years ago.
February 20, 20197 yr #6 Not the best picture is my Precious Tripod, 6th class. I will take another one tomorrow.
February 24, 20197 yr Author #7 Hi Hsin C, I had a feeling they were repros given how poorly they were constructed compared to original ones. Thanks for your help. Best, Dan
