Robin Lumsden Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) I have my two meagre original medals mounted in a frame. So I thought it would be nice to have a 'spare' set in the very unlikely event that I might have to wear them ............... occasionally done at memorial services, etc. The issue versions are on the left and the copies on the right.

219PG Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Same here - strange to think our groups may be researched like the 1887/1897 etc - really don't like seeing guys putting theirs on ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deelibob Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I always tell people to wear copies, which can be replaced. Mine are still in their boxes but I have mounted miniatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigjarofwasps Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Old thread, but interesting. Do you wear your originals or copies? Personally I wear my originals, my thinking being that’s what there designed for. Although I do understand why people would want to keep their originals in there boxes. Long gone are the days of officers only having an LSGC. Not unusual now to see officers with 3 or 4 medals. Starts getting a bit expensive, buying copies and getting them mounted!
