Medal Society of Ireland

The Medal Society of Ireland was founded in 1986. The society promotes and supports the collecting and study of medals, badges, arms and armour and militaria in their various collecting forms, with a special emphasis on Irish and Irish related material. Areas covered include:

  • The disbanded and existing Irish regiments of the British Army.
  • The Militia and Volunteers in Ireland.
  • Irish individuals and units who saw service in British Empire, Commonwealth and overseas armies and civil emergency services.
  • The Royal Irish Constabulary, Dublin Metropolitan Police, Royal Ulster Constabulary and Garda Siochana.
  • The Irish Defence Forces since 1922.
  • The Civil and Emergency Services of the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.

The Society produces a quarterly Journal, which contains articles, many of them illustrated, on these subjects. As many members have wider interests, features on foreign awards are also included from time to time. The Medal Society of Ireland is happy to accept for publication in the Journal articles of interest to the membership, from both members and non-members.

Society meetings are held quarterly in Dublin, the dates and venues for which are announced in advance in the society journal and on the society website.

The Society is currently inviting applications for membership. Annual subscription is €20 (Stg £18 or US $28) for adults and €10 (Stg £9 or US$14) for those aged 16 years and under. If you would like to join us in the Medal Society of Ireland please print and complete the application form and forward it, together with your subscription, to the Membership Secretary, whose address appears at the bottom of the application form. If you want to pay by cheque, that is perfectly acceptable, and payment can be in either Euro, Sterling £ or US$. Alternatively, if you have access to a Paypal account, you can register here and pay your subscription online
