The SA Legion badge is also commonly found in little boxes of "treasure ". There is also a similar one to the Rhodesian equivalent of the SA Legion ( scarcer , so maybe more collectible if you incline that way )
The other medallions were probably British and made their way over with their owners.
Hope that this helps.
