Hello,my new Ost medal and certificate turned up from its native home yesterday,quite a nice one from maker Nr 25. Will look up this maker at work tonight although someone on here nodoubt will educate me quickly. I notice that what looks like a copper or bronze colour is showing through where some of the original fiinish has rubbed off. Note also the late date on the award certificate,a retrospective award.Regards David.
