Does anyone here own this Wis. Nat. Gd. group? If so please contact me.
I recently placed an order for this group on a dealer web site and shortly afterwards was refunded my money and told that the group was sold long ago! Having made such a screw up myself in the past I have no problem with the dealer or the medal group's current owner. If the group happens to be for sale that would be great and I would be interested in buying it but the main reason for my quest is information. As some here may know, I am publishing a book on Wisconsin medals which will be out in about one month. This grouping has at least 2 if not 3 unlisted medals in it and while it is too late to put them in the book an addendum page is still possible for a very short period of time. I would need the physical descriptions ( size, weight, metal and inscriptions ) to do this. It would be to the advantage of the owner to have these medals recorded and I may be able to provide some background information for the group that the current owner may not know.
Bon chance. Hope you get lucky.
Thanks every one! BB, my fingers are crossed.
We know you are writing a book on these awards & hope you can find them. Ebay won't give you the purchaser's address, I presume. Can you contact the seller, explain the situation, and ask that he contact the buyer & give your reason for asking that he contact you. There has to be a way! What are your chances of the buyer being on C/W. Probably less than 1%.
Thanks bb but this was not an ebay sale. I also put this question out on 3 other forums for military and medal collectors. so collectors are very private and will not respond. But I tried.
