WWII Burma Star - Full-Size Replacement/Replica Medal
Condition is Excellent / Replacement
This is a full-size, high-quality replacement for the Burma Star, a campaign medal instituted by the United Kingdom in May 1945 for service in the Burma Campaign between 1941 and 1945.
A six-pointed star struck in a yellow copper-zinc alloy. The obverse features the Royal Cypher "GRI VI" (George VI), surmounted by a crown and surrounded by a circlet inscribed with "THE BURMA STAR".
The ribbon features the iconic color scheme designed to symbolize the forces involved:
Dark Blue: Represents the British Naval forces.
Red (Central): Represents the Commonwealth Armies.
Bright Orange/Yellow: Represents the sun.
Backing: Plain/Blank (as is standard for most original and replacement WWII stars).
Ideal for display, framing with family history, or for veterans' commemorative use where the original is missing.
This medal would have been officially purchased by the recipient or a family member to replace a lost medal
A very nice addition to your collection
