Christophe Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Here is a bust of Napoleon III.From left to right, we can identify the L?gion d'Honneur (medal + plaque), the M?daille Militaire, an unknown medal, and what seems to be the Medal of the Italy Campaign.Anyone has an idea of what is the 3rd medal ?
