2 medals found in malaysia

[Raz]

On a road trip through Malaysia I came across a small museum.

I found two medals, one a Elizabeth II GSM with Malaya clasp and a unknown Malaysian medal.

The rim of the GSM was so worn down that I could not make out the inscription.

Can anyone identify the Malaysian medal? I was under the impression from the museum owner

that both medals were from the same recipient.

It's from the state of Johore -- Sultan Ibrahim's Medal, which came in gold, silver and bronze classes. Unfortuntaely, I find any criteria for the award.

Great, thanks for the info! :-)

I think these are general merit medals, but let me look. I have some fragmentary notes somewhere . . . .

A possible pair, but with erased GSM you'll never know. A shame.

Thanks Ed.

I should have taken more photos as the museum had several more malaysian medals on display.

Yes please. Excellent quality design and Things Unknown are always a pleasure to see.
