Always a major highlight and talking point, the exhibition always covers a wide variety of themes including multiple military campaigns, regimental histories, the emergency services, gallantry, long service, foreign decorations and awards and the commonplace and the obscure.

Members wanting to exhibit should complete the Exhibit section of the booking form.

Medal Fair

As usual, there will be a selection of well-known medal dealers, plus our Sponsors – the main auction houses of A.H. Baldwin, Morton & Eden, Noonans and Spink.
