More information wanted on a random set of medals please
 

Hi everyone

Thanks again to those who helped me with my Indian Burma Star.

I thought I'd share some medals someone at work gave me today.

I'm interested to know what people think of the Dunkirk commemorative medal - I've discovered they were issued to British personnel in the 70s by the town itself.

From what I've read it's missing it's certificate and ribbon - are these medals collectable. I can find replicas for sale but few originals.

Also, anybody have any idea about the Victoria "medal" - it looks like a coin that's been drilled but has clearly been worn as a medal in the past.

Thanks, opinions are gladly welcome.

As it says on the items

Part of Dunkirk medal missing suspender ring ribbon and suspender please post other side to see if designers name is on it lack of is usual signe of copy

Hi thanks.

Since posting, I've managed to find out a bit more.

According to the War Relics Forum thread - http://www.warrelics.eu/forum/orders...al-fake-29637/ - the Paris inscription was present on the initial batch awarded to French personnel.

So I'm guessing mine is a 1970s version for allied personnel. If anyone knows otherwise please venture an opinion.

Much appreciated for your help.
