Number 11 look like the most likely culprit (it's a long time since I saw the offending item), but if it's listed as a replica then it sounds like they might have had a "proper" one made up.
The "San Domingo Medal" (14) is interesting because both the 16th and 17th lost all their paper records, including all their AWI-related stuff (spit!!!), in two entirely unrelated shipwrecks in the Caribbean in the early 1790s.

It's an impressive museum, mate, despite being a bit small.
I didn't realise there were two ships went down. Did the regiments lose many men? Very convenient that all the records were lost- especially regimental expenditure reports and inventory deficiencies. Like losing your (pre-computer) Q record, but on a grander scale.

If "The System" is the answer, who asked such a bloody stupid question?
