This is a nice original world war 2 British 'The Africa Star'. The Africa Star was a campaign medal of the British Commonwealth, awarded for service in World War II. The Star was awarded for a minimum of one day service in an operational area of North Africa between 10 June 1940 and 12 May 1943. The medal is complete with its original ribbon having a rare original 'North Africa 1942-43' clasp attached. Nice medal in good used condition!
