The Station Cat Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Came across this lot on Ebay. Never seen a Police LSGC medal with oak leaves before? Has anyone else ever come across this phenomenon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polsa999 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) The regular Police Long Service Medal was instituted in 1951....this is a George V medal and he died in 1936....so this is probably related to something else, I think the special constabulary....not a medal enthusiast so cannot comment with authority.

Steve Yes it's definitely the Special Constabulary Long Service Medal, but I've never come across one with a Mentioned in Dispatches oak leaf on before?

Polsa999 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 If you go to the Scottish Police Medals web site...it is mentioned on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
