    My very pleasure to help everybody to understand the complicated (as noone here except myself knows nothing about Medals and they are quite stubborn sometimes) and still growing Andorran Honors System. 

    Posted

    Well, I for one am glad that you are willing to talk to us...

    ... and if your colleagues in the Principality of Andorra need any assistance in developing their Honours System, I for one would be honoured to advise.

    You're welcome. The budget is not huge now so we can't use the excellent materials we should use. More pictures: 

    The Medals awarded to the Head of the City Guards of Ordino, with all the Years of Service Medals and the Medal for 25 Years of Service in the City of Ordino

    First type of the Medal for 25 Years of Service in the City of Andorra la Vella in both sides. It was awarded in 2011 to my mother's aunt. I personally modified the design and made the regulation for it to be numbered from now on. Miniature is handmade with a pin and not official.

    The sources are pretty numerous :)

    For example: http://steptos.com/olympics/where-were-the-summer-olympic-games-in-1952

    "Olympic Games 1952 in Helsinki, famous for one fun fact. They entered the history of the Olympic Movement as a game that has not been closed. August 3 at the closing ceremony of the games IOC President Sigfrid Engström said oration, but forgot to say the final phrase ascribed Charter: "I declare the XV Olympic Games closed." Olympics in Helsinki lasted two weeks, but was not completed until now".
