Description
The Western Australia Police Medal is a circular cupro-nickel medal, 38 mm in diameter, surmounted with St Edward's Crown. The obverse displays the Western Australia Coat of Arms, surrounded by the words 'WESTERN AUSTRALIA POLICE - DILIGENT AND ETHICAL SERVICE'. The medal is suspended by a ribbon coloured in vertical blue and white stripes in an inverse colour pattern to the Imperial Police Long Service and Good Conduct Medal that had previously been issued to Australian Police. This ribbon is shared with the South Australia Police Medal, Tasmania Police Medal, and Victoria Police Medal. The blank reverse is engraved at its centre with the recipient's initials, surname and police service number.
