VI issue. 
In its box of issue by the Royal Mint. 
With the respective ribbon bar (privately made).
Signed P.M. on the obverse and W.G. on the

The medal was established in 1945 and had been 
awarded for acts of courage by non British, 
civilians and ex military personnel (usually 
members of the Resistance groups) towards the 
Allied cause. 
It was primarily intended to reward those who at 
risk of their own lives had assisted British and 
Commonwealth escapees in enemy occupied 
territory (such as the evacuation of the British 
personnel in Dunkirk & after the battle of Crete). 
Only 3200 such medals were ever awarded - 
extremely scarce.
