Dear Friend, The purpose of this topic is to created a list of the cuban order and medal maker during the period of the spanish colony and the Cuban Republic until 1959. During the colonial period some Spanish order (militaty merit, Maria Cristina, Hermeneguildo) were made in Cuba or sold with a cuban maker's plaque on the back. For the colonial period I have listed the following manufacturers from Cuba : A. Ramentol. Located # 29 street O’Reilly esquina in Habana. Pereda. Located #15 Muralla street in Habana. Per
