Packets To Ponder Over

[kokstok]

Dear marcus, (and all others)
yes i know there are a lot of makers of the flower war medals. But all the known examples with a packet i know of carry the mm of a well known medal maker firm. (see pictures)
The two packages we discussed bare the name of two firms that made a lot of thing but i don't think they made any medals. The style of the packages i must confess are the same style as the flower medal packages, maybe these firms are the ones that are still unknown (the missing ldo numbers)
If i would buy a flower medal with packet i would go for the known ones. This is just my opinion and perhaps it will be always a mistery.

kind regards, René.

Hello my good friend Rene,

As convention goes these are associated and there is provenace to suggest they are Flower War medal packets, not for that paticular name I confess........who's to name who made the Flower Wars Medals ? There seem's to be many differences in them, from depth to the features on the obverse.........who's to say who made them ??? What makers can we attribute to them ??? I think there are many.

I would attribute this style, type, design of packet to Flowers War medals, noteablely the Czech medal thus so far.

All mini's seem to be in a different style of packet, and tinnies I doubt came in packets for the most......if any ?

I do have mini and 'pin' card's and packets and they as a norm are 'smaller' in dimension's to larger couterparts or indeed any medal/award/badge of a substanstial size difference if a packet, or base card was presented.

I would deem it logically and more acceptable to adhere to a sense of these were for 'Flower War's medal's', than any other conjecture at this moment in time.

The 'proof is in the pudding', as we say over here and I contemplate no reason to assume any other entitlement other than towards these 'Flower' medals at this moment in time, minnies and tinnies NO
with personal conviction !

But, I'm no expert or guru, this is an educated 'guess' and supposition, I wouldn't swear to it, but I would put good money on it. There is NO evidence so far to suggest otherwise in any way shape or form to my reckoning.

Your friend,

Marcus
