Well I learn something new everyday! Thanks to a very interesting customer in Austria I have learnt that the study and research of orders of chivalry and merit is known by the term Phaleristics.He has published a book on the Nursing Faleristics of Austria which I will try and get hold of.
Does that make you a "Nursing Faleristic" then?!!
Probably a Super ,not Callow, Faleristic ? :)
hi.
Should I report him to the moderator Magpie?
Will.
Now that supercalafragerlistic which makes me expadocious!
From a hero member too!

I think I'll stick to being just a badge collector, with my small!!! collection.
All the best,
ODPBarry
Hi.
Can you define 'small' for me please Barry? Or then again perhaps that is too big a question!!!
Very Best.
Will.
You know small Will? Like Australia small! :D
Hi,
Yes, I think that I am going to have to report you to the moderator - or is that small thinking??!! Ole...
Will.
Total collection somewhere in the region of 300.000 items but only about a third of it is related to medical insignia with an emphasis on Military Medical Insignia.
Hi Barry.

But have you seen one of these and if so can you name it? We have Peter flummoxed (never heard of that before.. Image below...

Sorry I don't know what it is either, as to museum, my wife thinks that I have to many, I have thinned it out a bit I think at one stage I had about 500.000 items.
