Medal Mounting
We offer a full medal mounting service, we court mount, miniatures, and full size, as well as tailor ribbon bars to uniform were applicable.
'Court Mounted' is where the ribbon appears down the rear of the medal and is mounted to a harder backing. The medals are then secured to this backing to prevent movement and so dramatically reduces the chance of damage to the medals when worn and improves the overall appearance of the medals.
