[QUOTE="Coinanthebarbarian, post: 4323471, member: 24227"][ATTACH=full]353836[/ATTACH] Hi all, I am a collector of all things coins and militaria. I am having some troubles identifying a little medal in my collection, and am wondering if anyone could possibly help? I have had this little medal in my collection for quite some time, but I know NOTHING about it. I’ve tried to do some research, contacted various museums, made some posts to different online forums, and have taken it into my regular militaria & antique shops. No one has ever seen or heard of this medal before, which is really weird. I am was wondering if anyone could lead me in the right direction to identifying this medal, or even if they have one themselves! Here is what the text reads: ‘South African & Active Service Association’ One kind member on another forum pointed out that the figure on the right appears to be wearing a naval uniform, the one on the left is wearing an army uniform, while the middle is wearing a ‘light horse’ uniform. I am more than happy to provide more/ clearer photos if needed! Any help would be very much appreciated. Regards, Coinanthebarbarian[/QUOTE]
