    There were different classes of Honour Medals, some round some with the cross.
    Made of brass or bronze, yours looks like steel or lead, it appears to have casting marks, the quality is not there.
    I would say its a counterfeit or copy.


    Real medals.

    Yes - It's a crappy iron casting.
