The Common Room / Medallion Identification
« on: Thursday 26 June 25 08:36 BST (UK)  »
Can any kind soul identify this medallion found in a case in Queensland, Australia.
It is copper about 25mm in diameter on the scarab beetle side it has the number 128 and letters CEC these are stamped in suggesting perhaps a membership number and a rank or position??

Any suggestions or advice on locating a source greatly appreciated.

Thanks everyone
The voyage was to Brisbane via Suez.
So for me the Burlings mystery is solved.

Thanks could clear it up .
The report reads" Very good voyage out with the exception of the passage from Gravesend down to the Burlings where the sea was very rough"

That makes sense I just felt there may have been another stop between Port Said and Thursday Island perhaps Java
Any thoughts?

Thanks

Thanks Maddys

That gives me a path to follow there is a chance there were stops in Torres Straight but that is not important.

Again
Thanks
