Congratulations you stumped the studs on that one.

It looks like a "fake"....poor details and wrong colors on the supposed HJ Honor award... not anything I'd give shelf space for... sorry, just my opinion.

John,

Thank you for your opinion.

Have had this one for over 40 years, and still have never been able to identify it.

Best regards,

Ron, I have been collecting over 40 years and haven not seen another, doesnt mean it doesnt exist as we learn and discover new things. Foreign HJ, American Bund? But agree that the soft details and color scheme is odd. TPK

Along my line of thinking exactly....still youth related...but could be bund....think back to where and when it was found, did the seller know anything , or even who he got it from.....? Yes there are lots of unknown items, not always the most attractive either....still stumped the studs...unless one has seen something long ago possibly a post war souval offering I hesitate to say the "F "word blatantly . You unfortunately may not ever get the right answer right off...sometimes things like this are discovered years later in photos or information discovered through coincidence and time...so wait for it....wait for it....you still may get the answer down the road someday.
