Very impressive collection .
What is the most rare one you have?
Gr. Theo.
hard to say theo i would think the waterloo medal third pic the one with a large ribbon red and blue edges also the irish uprising medal tenth pic with black and tan ribbon but a lot of medals are getting rare as time goes by

right guys more eye candy i took the pics so it would be rude not to share
Could you tell me more about the little helmet in the last pic, is it some sort of veterans badge?
Thanks, Glen.
i was at a militra fair once and seen one of these on a photo album it has two prongues at the back to attach on i could be wrong tho

You have a very impressive and comprehensive collection, Rory, representing many spheres of interest and many countries. I do not collect so focused myself (as I am interested in far too many types of items), however it is a marvel to behold such a finely displayed collection - thematic, but yet with much variation. Do you happen to have any decorations related to the (British) Royal Navy from the Napoleonic Wars?
Hochachtungsvoll,

thanks kenneth dont get me wrong i would love to have a lot of other items in the collection. but some of the items i would like are quite pricey and i cant resist medal's, i ended up selling two tr german water bottle's, bread bag, canteen and a fork/spoon just so i could get more medals. also other items can take up a lot of room.
to be honest i wouldnt remember off the top of my head i know i need about three more campaign medals to make it a complete set and i think a naval g.s.m. was one. but i will definetly look for you and get good pics along with the other requests.
the good thing about british medals is they are named and easily researched ( although not all of mine are) i can tell you i have a few medals to sailors etc. i think one was my indian mutiny medal and my abyssinian medal definetly which was only given to a couple of hundred army personel, if i remember correctly.
but i will check for you when i am back home
cheers rory
