The star-burst body is gold-tone with a blue enamel ring bearing the full organisation name, a silver-tone lion head at the centre, and a small crown detail. The reverse has a full bar-pin mechanism with a roller clasp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a small spot of verdigris patina on the upper reverse — not visible from the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA piece with clear provenance and purpose — worn to Remembrance events, parades, or as a year-round mark of support for veterans.
