    Sudanesse medal, help to identify?


    Recommended Posts

    Hello gentlemen

    I am not a collector of medals (yet),  I confess. This nice medal came to my hands through a friend coin seller. My research wasn't fruitful so far, so I came to ask for your help. I'd appreciate it, and if its appropriate in the forum, any form of valuation would help a lot too. Hope its an interesting piece for you also.

    Thank you for any input

    Thanks dear Owain!

    Most probably its a common medal, or uninteresting, or simply almost absent from the internet, or...

    Anyway, if it has any interest, please tell me... (if not, don't tell me :rolleyes:)

    Best regards

    Dear Angelok,

    This is the 'Medal of Evacuation' awarded to all serving during the evacuation of foreign (British) forces from Sudan.

    Kind regards,

    Owain

     

     

    I noticed it also has a lowered Egyptian flag (on the right side). I don't know how I feel about that! :D:D

    Aha, and the British flag is coming down on the left hand side. It is not a common medal, but the demand for Sudanese awards is not great. Finding the correct ribbon will be a challenge - 2nd row third from the left (red, white, black, white, black, white, red) - between the Long Service (black white black) and Independence (blue yellow green).

    .....and the others, I think:

    Order of the Revolution, Order of Bravery, Order of Victory.

    Order of National Unity (?), Long & Distinguished Service, Evacuation, Independence.

    Merit 1st Class, ????, Egypt Military Star, Egypt 1973 War.

    Once more thank you for the great information.

    If I understood well a lot will want it just to take it out of sight...:ninja:

    Nevertheless it will take its way in a couple of weeks, so, get on the queue while its early...:D

    All the best
