Battle of Britain / London memorial coin
Hi All
I just picked up this 'coin'. It is about 60mm diameter and obviously a BoB memorial coin. There are quite a number on e*ay but little info. Can anyone give me some extra info, like when they were issued, etc. Thanks, cheers, Alex |

Medal made in 1945 by the company John Pinches (Medallists) Ltd. to commemorate the assault on London in 1940-1941 and again in 1944.
Part of the proceeds for the sale of this medal went towards the RAF Benevolent Fund. They appear to have been made in various metals , including a "limited edition" silver one. .
