Clasp to Colonial Medal/Médaille coloniale

[Peppe864]

Hi guys!

Does anyone collect clasps to the Colonial medal? I got hold of a nice lot from different time periods.

Which one would be rarest? I was told it was "Iles Marquises".

Hello Pepe864,

Original "Isles Marquises" bars are indeed quite rare (most if not all Colonial Medal bars have been remade over the years). Some more information can be found on Hendrik's Medal Corner :-)

The "Levant" and "Casablanca" bars belong to other medals (Commemorative Medals of Syria-Cilicia and of Morocco resp.).

The "Sud-Oranais" bar is a nice unofficial bar which is not too common either, I believe.

 Regards,

Hendrik
