Medals ID Help
Not the best of images but can anyone help identify the medals being worn - and the cap badge if you have great eyesight.
Thanks, Jon |

Furthest right could be the "Khedive’s Star" 1882?

Yes, it looks it, although the actual date on the Star can vary.The medal preceding it will be the Egypt Medal.
The second one in - Kabul to Kandahar Star? First one, possibly the Indian General Service Medal. |

Quote:
if the second one is the K to K Star then logic would suggest that the first one would be the Afghanistan Medal for the campaign 1878-1880 ? Worn preceding the Egypt Medal and Khedive's Star would also make chronological sense. PL |

Very helpful, thank you. I had assumed that two of them were stars.

Khedive's Star: notorious for knocking seven bells out of the silver Egypt medal when they have been worn "swing mount". True to its nature it does EXACTLY the same when worn as a miniature....
