Renamed QSAs

Collectors can benefit from using a metal
strip that has different size circles.  The
medal fits within the circle making it easier
to see if the rim has been tampered with. 
This strip fits medals of 5 different diameters.  Note that some medals, such
as the Khedive Sudan will not fit in the largest aperture.
An alternative to the metal strip is a pair of callipers A renamed QSA The same renamed QSA

It is quite common to see QSAs that have been renamed.  Some have been officially renamed and other have been unofficially renamed.

Examples of QSAs that has been officially renamed are often found to nurses.  Other examples include the Mafeking Cadet Corps.
