Here's a new addition ..
Interesting in that it has the classic die flaws including the spot above the cross guard
and the die flaw to the left of the hinge block ... all classics of an original BUT it has a round wire catch rather than the square or rectangular section on the other awards shown in Andrei's excellent reference thread. Here it is alongside the 1st Class in Gold without Swords. Both awards are unmarked.
Cheers, Ian.
