paul wood Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 It is a 50th Anniversary of the Armistice, 1968 (wapenstilstand literaly means laying down of arms). looks unoffical to me, possibly an issue by a veteran's organisation, obverse bears the portraits of Albert I and Baudouin. Hope this helps, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jef Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Hello Frank, I have read this unofficial medal was given by the Belgian town Nieuwpoort as a commemoration medal. Nice medal but the ribbon is poorly made, isn't it? kind regards, Jef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
