    Polish Medal(s)

    Can anybody tell me, when the design of the Medal was changed?
    I have this one with an X for 10 Years, in the Net I find Medals in bronze, silver & gold without numerals.
    For sure I have some more questions later.
    thanks so far.

      Hello, about the long-service medal "armed forces in service of motherland", this is the un-coroned eagle version produced between 1951 and 1992.

      In 1951, three classes: gold 15 years, silver 10 years, bronze 5 years.
      In 1960: gold 25 years (never awarded), silver 15 years, bronze 5 years.
      In 1968: gold 20 years, silver 10 years, bronze 5 years.

      Following W. Stella's book, it could be a 1968 variation (the "X" nearly touches the rim of the oval medaillon).

        About the Virtuti Militari, it is a complex subject, and a widely faked medal. It has been awarded in small quantities and is expenseive ( circa 1000 euros for a 5th class).
        Yours look like post-1992 variations.
