BOPHUTHATSWANA Defence Force Merit Decoration.

[Marcon1]

Hiya,

 

I saw this medal on Bobshop and I noticed,that it is missing the coat of arms on the back.

 

I've a picture of this medal with the coat of arms.

 

Now I'm wondering, is this a museum copy or a fake (looks badly finished) or is it a (for me) a unknown variety ??

Who can tell me more about it.

 

Regards, Marcon1.
