sftrooper86 Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Happy 2020 to all! Can you please assist me identify these 2 medals. I believe they may be from Africa but can't locate anything on them. Many thanks, Vince
ChrisW Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 Vince, I can't help you with the one on the left but the one on the right has the flag of Suriname (in South America), and says (in Dutch), "Courage, Conduct, Faith" Best, Chris
Marcon1 Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 The first one is from Kwazulu (former South African Homeland). It looks like the Kwazulu Correctional Services KZCS Medal for Merit (1991-94) Insignia: A circular silver medal displaying a traditional headring within a wreath of leaves (obverse) and the KwaZulu coat of arms (reverse). However, yours is with a star above the headring (different version ??) 2nd. medal is indeed from Surinam. moed = courage. beleid = policy. (but can also mean behaviour (conduct)). trouw = loyalty.
