    6. Hi All, All the medals use in the full size collector sets, are original awards that came from the Livingstone Mint. When the Rhodesia became Zimbabwe, they took all available medals en use them for the display sets. The original certificate from the Livingstone Mint stipulates that. The miniatures are all reproductions Regards Archie

    16. Hi Megan, On your medal site, the picture that you post at the Defence Force Merit Medal (Bophuthatswana), is actually the Medal for Merit in the Bophuthatswana Prisons Service. The ribbon is correct, but the mefal is wrong. Attached is the correct Defence Force Merit Medal. Regards Archie
    17. Hi Megan, No problem for me to work according to the Order of Precedence I saw one mistake, but will let you know later. A Bop Prison medal with a Bop DF medal ribbon, was placed under the wrong name. Regards Archie
    18. Hi Marco, Yes 100%. The only difference on the new 30 and 35 year Medals, is the 35 on the top suspender. Both are silver gilt Do you have a link for me to Megan's website, please Regards Archie
    19. Hi Megan, I will visit your site and let you know if I see anything wrong, but I doubt it Regards Archie
    20. Hi Megan and Marco, 100% correct except the two light blue and white ribbons, was never approved. The first 18 Years (bronze) and new 20 Years (silver) used the same ribbons and the same with the two 30 Years medals. The first 30 Years was silver and new 30 years silver gilted. Regards Archie
    21. My lates additions to my collection is the two South West African Police Special Taskforce sample wings on the left. All four are very hard to find and only a limited amount were made of the two on the right
