Nice little Cross of Merit with woven ribbon - with the "RP" of the Republic

These confuse me though, is it pre or post communist production?

Warsaw Medal 1939-45:

These were worn like British "mess dress" in miniature groups, presumably?

Kevin,

Interesting that this miniature appears to have been made by IKOM. Has anyone seen other Polish medals with maker marks from IKOM?

Kevin,

I thought it might be a replacement but I am not familiar with Polish medals. Miniature or otherwise.

Just a slight Difference Leigh:-

290.00 GBP = 566.253 USD

290 Dollars = 148.496 GBP
