unknown medal?

Hi guys, can you tell me what this medal is. Thank you

It looks like the Danish coat-of-arms for the 1903-1947 period.

 

I have seen this medal before, but can't place it precisely... surely something non-official. 

 

I think it's a medal associated with the Danish "Motorordonnanskorps" (a motorcycle based military messenger corps).

A translation of this Danish unofficial award may be "The Motor Ordnance Association's Badge of Honor" (Motorordonnansforeningens Hæderstegn). There is another thread here on GMIC that also identified this medal: "Potential Danish Medal?" started by Lines on 20 July, 2020 here in the "Northern European & Baltic States" section: 

 

larsb001 contributed an image of the statutes for this award on that "Potential Danish Medal?" thread. He also mentioned that it's an award for a motorcycle courier service, probably of the home guard and it is not an official award.
