Commonwealth Independence Medals

[Geof]

Perhaps a little OT but here is my collection of Commonwealth Independence medals. As each of the former colonies went through the sometimes painful process of independence from Great Britain usually a medal was produced and issued to those involved. Some of these are darned hard to get.

From L-R, T-B
Uganda, St Kitts & Nevis, India, Jamaica, Guyana (yes I know the ribbon is btf)
Nigeria, Solomon Islands, Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe, Papua New Guinea
Kenya (Coopted), Pakistan, Fiji, Sri Lanka, Malawi
Rhodesia

Missing are Gilbert Islands, Ellice Islands, Vanuatu, Swaziland, Ghana and an actual Kenya medal.

This is a symptom of my OCD need to collect sets of things.

Interesting collection. I imagine a lot of those are hard to come by. Thanks for sharing your display.

Very nice, I suffer from the same collector OCD also and tried to collect all the Independence medals but didn't get as far as you.
