Help with a KVK2

[Steve Conway]

Hi,

I bought this last week and initially thought it was an earlyish tombak medal. However I understand this is supposed to look like bronze, this medal has a copper coloured hue. Can I get some opinions as to whether this is a tombak medal?

Regards

Steve

Looks like tombak to me...
You can tell by the way the ring is attached to the cross

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback.

The yellow traces appear greener in real life, I assume it is some form of oxidisation.

Regards
