Please note that in some instances both medals and badges have been added for display purposes to the medals in this collection. Whilst every reasonable effort has been made to verify authenticity this is difficult due to the wide variety of naming styles found on U.S. medals and as a result lots 280-379 are sold as seen and are not subject to return.
