Between the wars, Britain's armed forces served across the globe in a turbulent era of empire, peacekeeping, and preparation. From the North-West Frontier of India to the deserts of Palestine and Iraq, British servicemen maintained order in far-flung territories while at home the military quietly modernised, learning the lessons of 1914-18. These interwar years were no holiday from duty — they were the bridge between two world wars, and the men and women who served shaped the force that would face its greatest test in 1939.
This silver-plated commemorative honours Interwar Service in thoughtful numismatic detail. Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated standard with a proof-like finish, this 32mm piece is plated in .999 fine silver and weighs 10.5 grams — a tribute to the service that held the line between the wars.
