How many? and Copper or bronze? edit

Dear Wikipedians,

Various sources give different numbers of medals. Then there are those that claim that the medal is made of bronze, not copper.

I have seen the numbers 6 334 522 on the English Wikipedia and 5 700 000 on A Guide to British Campaign Medals of WW1 op [1]. On The Long, Long Trail, The British Army in the Great War of 1914-1918 on [2] the number 5,725,000 was given.

Who is right in this case?

Faithfully yours,
