MALTA MEDAL FOR SERVICE TO THE REPUBLIC

[heusy68]

Hello Gentlemen,

 

Here is the Malta Medal for Service to the Republic ( Midalja Ghali-Qadi tar-Repubblika ).

 

This medal was instituted in 1975 ( as type 1 ). Since 1988 there is a type 2 ( with modified obverse ).

 

The medal which is 3 separates parts construction is 40 x 44 Millimeters ( because of the suspension ), and weight is 39 Grammes for the 1st Type ( photo 1 & 2 ).

 

The 2nd type, I can only bet the dimension & weight are closely similar.

 

The Republic of Malta awards these medals sparingly ( in 2019, only 11 were awarded, in 2022, only 10 were awarded ( 3 of them were posthumous award ).

I'am looking for a type 2 ( photo 3, 4 & 5 )

I'am gonna be in Malta ( Valetta ) from Tuesday 5 September to Saturday 9 September. By the way, I'am often in the UK too ( mostly London ).

 

I'am looking to eventually bought one, just feel free to contact me.

 

Regards to all.
