Perhaps initially Morel had thought there existed a 41mm medal and when the 51mm come along it created some confusion?

what work if any had been done on Ag medals. Is there even a basic list?
no books/publications?
perhaps an occasional mention in numismatic magazine?
No lists or dedicated publications that I know of. You'd need to comb auction catalogues and the occasional NZNJ article for starters, and ask a few dealers nicely for details of anything they might have in stock, canvass other medal collectors, etc. Basically how Hamish kicked off the first edition of the post-1940 commemorative medals book.
