lilo Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 This portrays most of the medals that I have acquired here in the Sudan. It includes two gordon star's for the siege of Khartoum. There are also examples of the coins that were struck by the Mahdi in Omdurman before his death. The two table knives have Victorian markings on them.Hi and compliments for your splendid display !May I ask you to post some detailed images of the 3 Khedive Sudan 1910 medals with clasps (two with 1 clasp and one with 3 clasps) you have in your medal collection ?I'm deeply interested in this medal and on his clasps.Many Thanks in advanceBest RegardsLilo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabrigade Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 PARTICIPANTS IN THE BATTLE OF OMDURMAN I reframed this collection of badges a few months ago. Some of the Sudanese badges were probably issued and worn at a later stage but I have used them to represent and symbolise the Sudanese contribution to the Battle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
