    This is a mini size purple heart medal. I am not sure why there are not red stripes across the top of the bronze medal like all the pictures I see on the Internet. This obviously looks old so I am thinking it is real, but if it is real, why doesn't it look like all of the other pictures. I acquired this at a reduction sale.

    Are there any numbers along the side edge?
    Also include size reference as you said it is mini.
