No worries Warlord, your thread is most welcome, please feel free to add more info or post new threads, that you think might be of interest. I believe that the Falklands have their own gold coins to?

Hi Chris,

This is a great piece!! Did you get this piece yourself?

[Guest WAR LORD]

I obtain this just after the war in Portsmouth. It was returned by a Spiecial forces officer, with a silver dagger. The note as you can see is a specimen. It was to be destroyed, that was the order, Mrs T would not like to have it around. The silver dagger, the SP Officer said was of no further use to its former owner.

any chance of a pic of the dagger?

This is a scan of the dagger. It is of 800 silver and the gold mounts are of 18 ct. The blad is not of great quality, but is marked with Argentina.
