Chris Boonzaier Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 I assume a merit award. This is the pre Vietnam war era one, there are two older versions.The Bronze comes up from time to time,. I found two of them. One "antique" dealer said the silver ones are super rare.

JBFloyd Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 The Reign Medals come in three grades (bronze, silver, gold) and with varying inscriptions. Scarce, at best, in the silver and gold grades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBFloyd Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Ribbons are sometimes available through French collectors, usually at substantial prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willfyfe Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Agreed, local antique dealers are seldom a good barrometer.Any idea if there is a way to get ribbom for these?Look on French Ebay under Ruban or Coupe Ruban, this award was quite commonly given to French officers, so the ribbons come up from time to time. It's a red 6mm yellow 25mm red 6mm ribbon for both classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiDave Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) Chris, To plug my own site (again) There is more on it here: www.indochinamedals.com/laos/ls03_order_of_the_reign.html This ribbon is possible to come by, so if you didn't find a ribbon yet, they are commonly available on ebay France. You might also find something in the OMSA ribbon bank ? Edited November 27, 2011 by ThaiDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
