bruce Posted 20 September , 2009 Share Posted 20 September , 2009 It is certainly a handsome medal, but it is hallmarked 1959, yet I thought the Imperial War Graves Commission only became the CWGC in 1960. Could this have been made in anticipation of a presentation the following year. Maybe Terry Denham might throw some light on this? Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auchonvillerssomme Posted 21 September , 2009 Share Posted 21 September , 2009 I agree with Bruce - a commemoration piece struck in anticipation. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
