    Interesting to have the Independence Medal. Ed, do you source these in India or, UK - a fine collection, just for these Indian ones and they all seem to be for high ranks.

    Most of my collection comes from India, but a few (including this one) are from a major UK-dwelling collection that is being dispersed.

    Low-rankers rarely got/get medals, while those of high rank were/are aggressive in awarding things to themselves. Indeed, pre-1947, Indians in the police rarely got medals.
