Hi Mike

I am more than envious!

Can you give a reference to our site : I do not know how I missed it. I have a QSA/KSA to a recipient of the badge (Sgt W R Pedley). I am also looking for his DCM

Good Morning Henk.....

The site is our favorite auction site Ebay.....

It was listed under:

Collectibles - Historical Memorabilia - Police Badges: Obsolete - United States

Which is why I think that it was not seen by at least tooooo many people.....

One of the best pieces that I have in my collection (the Prototype QSA Medal) I found in the category Costume Jewelry.....
