These more recent Medals have a new style ring which is more wire-like separate pieces, similar to Type 1 Great Patriotic War Campaign Medals of the Soviet Union.<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->

			<description><![CDATA[A fairly new badge, this piece is made from a substantial jewelers' alloy, is screw backed and not numbered. The enamel is of the cold variety. The small "highlights" in the green area are caused by on-camera flash hitting raised portions (dust perhaps) of the green enamel, and are not so apparent under normal light. Not my favorite piece because of the workmanship and, frankly, "ho-hum" design, it still has a place in my collection for what it is.<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->

			<description><![CDATA[A stunning medal from an organization notoriously difficult to collect. The reverse should probably be the obverse here; note the beautifully high relief carving of the Customs Building against the untextured background... a milestone- comparable to US medals- in my opinion. Anyway, it was issued in 2012 and also has a soldered suspension ring. No mint mark.<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->

			<description><![CDATA[It is, for some reason, very difficult for me to get hold of customs awards. However, I have come by this example of a medal that wasn't; it is a prototype design that did not make it to final production and, as such, it is quite rare. I suppose I look for these because it represents that which I used to do (and miss terribly) for a living; anyway, the striking of the medal itself remained the same, although the enamel in the center became white. The outer ring on the obverse of the medal was left plain (without the grey enamel). The reverse of the medal remained the same. The 6 sided suspension was reduced to 4 sides (a long rectangle); the wreath "hangar" pointing downwards here was made to go straight across the bottom of the suspension and, finally, the yellow stripe on the ribbon's left edge was removed, with the red stripes moved closer to the right edge of the ribbon.<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->
