ForeignGong Posted 9 February , 2020 Share Posted 9 February , 2020 Hi Can any one tell me if the clasp below is copy or original please??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark holden Posted 9 February , 2020 Share Posted 9 February , 2020 based on the size of the holes and thickness of the clasp I would say a copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldstreamer Posted 9 February , 2020 Share Posted 9 February , 2020 (edited) One must always bear in mind that originals may have had the holes redrilled to enlarge them as the holes are pretty tiny. the far left of the bar looks like a ledge which isn't one I've seen before I'd pass on this one too Edited 9 February , 2020 by Coldstreamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeignGong Posted 10 February , 2020 Author Share Posted 10 February , 2020 Thank you both. It is a medal group on Ebay with a foreign medal and I have never been able to tell if a clasp was good or not so thought I would ask here. I am not purchasing the group I am adding the details to my database. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepoy Posted 10 February , 2020 Share Posted 10 February , 2020 The shape of the "22" is also not correct. There is a good thread on the British Medal Forum discussing the 1914 date bars herehttps://britishmedalforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5782&hilit=1914+bars&start=210 Sepoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
