The Purple Heart is the wounded medal of the United States Armed Forces and is also the oldest military medal in use in the world. It is awarded to soldiers who have been wounded in combat by enemy forces, and also posthumously to fallen soldiers. Until 1997, civilians who worked for the US Armed Forces could also receive the medal. Since 2001, they have received the Secretary of Defense Medal for the Defense of Freedom.

Originally created by George Washington in 1782 as a Badge of Military Merit to honor soldiers in times of financial hardship, the Purple Heart was forgotten for almost 150 years. It was not until 1932 that it was revived by the US War Department on the occasion of Washington's bicentennial birthday and was retroactively awarded for injuries sustained since April 5, 1917.

The American heraldist Elizabeth Will is responsible for the current design of the Purple Heart. The first example was minted in the largest American mint, the Philadelphia Mint, and designed by John R. Sinnock.

I will pay, just buy a lesson. The item sold is different from seller's description. It is not ancient Dzi bead.

All the beads were photographed in real life, and you can see from the photos that the beads are old.

I will pay. But in fact I know it is processed manually. It has no value at all but may cause harm to skin.
