I do enjoy those Chrysanthemum award medals, produced by Restall, especially when they are carefully inscribed. This one is gilt over silver.

    Pretty cool. How many are there?

    Don't know the answer to that one. I personally have four Restall medals, featuring the Chrysanthemum. I suspect that there were several other designs.

    Hey @harasha - today I was going through a box or two of things I've accumulated over the years and found this Chrysanthemum Mum medal and thought you might like a peak. Not a Restall, and not silver but nicely engraved and produced by Wright & Son:

    And awarded to a Cooper (my last name)! However, no family living in Britain until after WW II, and they did not share the name. Curiously, I do not think there ever was a family member with the first initial of "W."
