Pantographing applied to WW1/WW2 medals to, but not the Stars as mentioned earlier. I do know of several old soldiers who definately did the time, but had no pantographing carried out on their medals, so again, it appears to be hit and miss affair, but most have their details enscribed. I noticed when I applied for medals not given at the time, for a few of my locals, they came back with no pantographing at all FYI.
