Hardly relevant Mr Fish. What do you think an ounce of bronze is worth? 10p? That's what the Victoria Cross is made of and that is the most highly prized medal of them all. Or are you saying the higher the intrinsic value the greater the honour?

Agreed. Although the VC is made of bronze as it was traditionally smelted from the last surviving bronze cannon from Sevestapol.

But then Ive had a few, and could be wrong.
