Today the Thailand WW1 Victory medal arrived, which you can see here in the first 4 pictures.



These pictures are the collection of Allied WW1 Victory medals.

My pride of the collection is the Japanese medal which came in it's original wooden box, it is in brand new condition, it's as if it was put in a safe to this day.

Here is an old favorite of mine.

This was created in honour of sinking of the Lusitania.

The centre medal was for something else i believe, the two either side of it are WW1 service medals given to those who served in the conflict.

The star shaped medal was only given to soldiers who volunteered at the start of the conflict.
