I recently acquired some antiques from my grandmother, but have no information of where they are from and how old they are. But saw this old war metal with some old chinese characters on the back.

I am a serious Imperial Japanese medal collector. This is one of the more rare ones... WWII JAPANESE WAR MEDAL MANCHUKO ORDER Of THE PILLARS of STATE.
Manchukuo EMPIRE. 1930s.
This award was one of the main orders of the Manchukuo Empire. Sources say that this
order corresponded with the Japanese Order of the Sacred Treasure, so it should have
been freely awarded for merit. However, since the puppet empire lasted only 13 years
(1932-45) and since this order was established in 1936, this medal is hard-to find and
is highly desirable for collectors.
Thank you, Musashi007! I had absolutely no idea what kind of medal this was. I love finding out about the history on these items. Again, thanks!
