I don't like the first 25-year set -- lacks the detail I would expect to see. I'm not crazy about the 12-year either (odd gold finish and attachment of ring). I think the remainder look ok.

I agree both 25 years are bad the pitting in the cross arms miss detail.The 4 and 18 year are good the 12 i got my doubts i dont like the finnish and the solder spot on the back by the ring

Thank you! So the both 4 Years and 18 years are Ok?

In my opinion the 40yr is not good.

Several reasons. Ribbon Ring, Jump Ring and the detail on the eagle.

Also the wreath is the open type.

I know there are different opinions on this but I like the closed type.

The 25 year might be good.

Jump ring and ribbon ring appear to be what should be there.

I'd like to see the edges in between the crosses arms.

4yr and 18yr look good to me.

The 12yr I'm not crazy about either.

# 2, 4, 5 & 6 all look original. But to be sure would like to see more photos of the 25 yr.

The rest are repro's in my opinion.

Kind regards

From seeing the additional pictures I think the 25 year is a good one.

Anyone else?
