Here is a link to the last living holder of the Victoria Cross, that died just recently.

http://www.recorder.ca/cp/National/050803/n080361A.html

The Victoria Cross has been bestowed 1354 times since 1854.

Each VC is still made by the same London jewelers, Messrs Hancocks [now HANCOCKS & CO. (JEWELLERS) LTD - Established 1849, from the bronze of Chinese cannons captured from the Russians at the siege of Sebastopol.
