Welcome to my Orders & Decorations web site. I have enjoyed the opportunity of sharing my interest and knowledge of medals through my books and numerous articles in The Journal Orders and Medals Society of America. I am pleased to have the opportunity to do so now on the World Wide Web. This will be an evolving section of our web site. Special thanks to John Sylvester, Jr. and Hendrik Meersschaert for their assistance. Comments and suggestions from viewers of this site are always welcome.

Appraisal Service
We are pleased to offer written appraisals of most military and civilian medals. Simply e-mail us an image (obverse and reverse) and a brief description of your particular medal. Be sure to note any serial numbers or naming on your piece. Also, please let us know of any documentation tying your medal to a particular individual. Through our worldwide network of medal experts, we should be able to expeditiously place a value on your treasure. Reasonable appraisal fees will be quoted in advance. Written and signed appraisals will be forwarded to you via snail mail or via the Internet at your option.
