I've seen a few Spitfire 'pictures' and this is definitely the best of the bunch.
It would be good to know what the medal is.

Thank you both for the very kind words!

Gorby, the medal and badges are replicas of:

The Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC) that was issued by the RAF to Squadron Leader, Jan Zumbach for his heroics, along with many other pilots from 303, Polish Squadron during the Battle of Britain.

With every other work you present here I am more and more impressed by your skills - but most of all your creativity to present well known subjects in an original way. Hats off.
