About Valormedals
Preserving History Through Exceptional Collectible Pieces
At Valormedals, we have a deep appreciation for the history, craftsmanship, and symbolism behind military medals, orders, decorations, badges, and ceremonial insignia from around the world.
Our experience in the medal collecting community dates back to 2002, beginning through online marketplaces and developing over more than two decades of working with historic medals, orders, decorations, and related collectibles.
Valormedals.com is our dedicated platform today, bringing that experience together in one place for collectors, historians, reenactors, and anyone with a genuine interest in historic insignia and decorations.
Our Focus
We specialize in historic orders, medals, decorations, badges, insignia, ribbons, presentation cases, and related collector pieces, with particular attention to important and difficult-to-find designs from the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, Asia, and other parts of the world.
Many historically significant pieces are extremely rare, preserved in museums or private collections, or simply unavailable to most collectors.
For this reason, we are especially interested in unusual, historically important, and often overlooked designs rather than concentrating only on commonly available pieces.
Our aim is to make interesting historical designs accessible to collectors while preserving the distinctive appearance and character that make the originals so fascinating.
Attention to Detail
Historic insignia can contain an extraordinary level of craftsmanship—from enamel work and detailed metalwork to ribbons, suspension systems, clasps, fittings, and presentation cases.
When developing collector-made pieces, we pay close attention to proportion, construction, materials, surface finish, ribbon configuration, fittings, and overall historical appearance.
Whenever possible, we study historical photographs, surviving examples, museum references, archival material, original specifications, and other reliable sources to better understand how a particular piece originally looked and was constructed.
Small details matter.
The shape of a suspension, the proportions of a badge, the width and color of a ribbon, the depth of an enamel section, the finish of the metal, or the construction of a fitting can significantly affect the appearance of a finished piece.
Our goal is to create collector pieces that respect the visual character, craftsmanship, and historical presence of the originals.
Rare & Unusual Pieces
Some of the most interesting medals and decorations are also among the most difficult to find.
We have a particular interest in pieces that are rarely reproduced or are no longer commercially available.
This may include historic orders of chivalry, gallantry decorations, military awards, ceremonial insignia, miniature medals, ribbons, cases, badges, and other specialized items from different periods and countries.
Our collection continues to develop as we discover new historical references and receive suggestions from collectors around the world.
Special Requests
Some of our most interesting projects begin with collectors themselves.
If there is a rare medal, order, badge, decoration, ribbon, case, or other historical piece that you have been searching for but cannot find, we welcome special requests and suggestions.
We are also happy to consider unusual designs or historically significant pieces that are currently unavailable to collectors.
While not every project can be produced, we are always interested in discovering pieces that deserve greater attention.
For Collectors Who Appreciate the Details
Valormedals is not about ordinary mass-market souvenirs.
Our interest is in pieces with history, character, craftsmanship, and meaning.
We believe collectors notice the details, and those details are what make historic medals and decorations worth studying, preserving, and appreciating.
That philosophy has shaped our work for more than two decades, and it continues to guide the collections available through Valormedals today.
Thank you for visiting Valormedals.com and for sharing our interest in the remarkable history behind these objects.
