Under the Stolen Valor Act, it is a federal offense to purchase a replica of the Congressional Medal of Honor. It is a criminal offense to wear and display even a real Medal of Honor if you are not the person who actually earned the medal. Fortunately, in June 2012, the Supreme Court of the United States struck down the law by finding it unconstitutional.
