WWII JAPAN PRE 1941 STERLING SILVER JAPANESE SOLDIER'S RED CROSS MEDAL W/RIBBON
This is an original Membership Medal and Ribbon from the Japanese Red Cross. Made of sterling silver, dating it to the pre-1941 period (after 1941, due to WWII, silver was in short suppl and aluminum was used to make this medal). Obverse features the symbol of the Japanese Red Cross above a Geneva Cross; reverse includes the date of the founding of the society - Me...iji 21 (1888). Ribbon has soiling; silver medal very tarnished. See photos. Ask questions now please as I don't accept returns.
