    The mini Military Medal


    Recommended Posts

    Hello Chris,

    Never seen one like that before but I'd say you've come to the right conclusion.

    Would a Frenchman wear the medal with the obverse as the King's head or do you think he'd prefer to show the more attractive reverse side.

    That's a nice piece! Last year, I had to get some French miniatures for Patrick Churchill - ex-N? 4 Commando - from Arthus Bertrand and, of course, they are smaller than British miniatures so they were going to look a bit odd mounted with his British campaign stars and medals. Another veteran remembered having some French-made miniatures of British medals back in the 1950s but we couldn't find any. So we mounted his French awards together and he wore them under his British miniature medal bar.
