New Medal Bar

[Tony T-S]

A man who lived through some amazing history. I wonder what he did during the TR period. Not just a Vet, but doing something during the time that saw him put together his medals postwar. Pride in his service. A very fine medal bar

The guys in the crosses section may be able to shed some light on the EK2 Tom

I would take a chance and say possibly a KO cross

A very nice combination of awards! First time I see this kind of fastening on a medalbar.

It's not a KO, because the details (numerals etc.) on those crosses a very flat.

Another nice medalbar !!!

With another challenges to ID



Ok, so the EK2 is made by K.A.G. (unmarked as I suppose) which is an unknown maker. This style of crown is very common to many of unknown makers, but it's identical to mine KAG example, also the lettering (especially "4").


The FA cross is a wartimer, made of painted iron (?). I had once example made by the same manufacture, but I can't tell you who made it because of small knowledge about that crosses.


And the bulgarian medal... I don't know... It's quite different from another ones that I have in hand, but... I have no idea...

Thanks to all of you that commented!!
@Patryk, especially thanks to you, as once again your knowledge of Imperial makers has come to the rescue!!!
Even though the bar only has one 57er on it, I really like it, nice combination of awards, and the unusual fastener's on the rear, instead of the normal, pin, hinge, and catch!!!

Just out of interest...
I came across this Hindy with an identical fastener, so while rare, obviously not unique.......
