I've got another one if you would be so kind. Last one, I promise! Think these might be upside down though...

Sorry to be a pain, but do you have any idea how much older it might be?

The Japan Firefighters Association was founded in 1948, and the old kanji system was used officially until around 1949, so the medal would be in those years.
