Jasian1001 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 12/17/2019 5:45 pm I have this military medal owned by Herbert Choy (look up if you don't know who he is) and I can't identify it anywhere. I think it may have been a custom made medal for him but I don't know. It would be great for my family history to know what this is. Report this Post to the Staff

chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 4212 Posts	Posted 12/17/2019 5:56 pm Can't help you with identifying the medal but I can welcome you to the Forum. You've come to a phenomenal place to share and learn. Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection: http://goccf.com/t/303507 Report this Post to the Staff
oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 3941 Posts	Posted 12/17/2019 6:21 pm to the CCF! I don't have an answer for you, but it would help in general if you would crop all of your images so that we can see more detail/ any inscriptions, and so forth. Report this Post to the Staff

Jasian1001 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 01/01/2020 02:14 am It was my great great uncle Herbert Choy's. He never served in Japan and enlisted the day after Pearl Harbor. How can he have found it intact on US soil? Report this Post to the Staff
