    Typical Spanish brooch. But I have not been able to identify what medal until now.

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    I wonder if you've looked at Argentina as a source.  Take a look at the sun in the center of their flag.  Because this has only one face, I suspect this may not be an official national medal.  Perhaps an honorary society, etc.  

     

    Best,

    Hello : Argentinian is not , yes we have the faced sun as emblem of the land Army but we never used the mural crown that topped the sun . the 2nd Spanish Republica replaced the royal crown with a mural one very similar to the crown of the medal .Its a curious thing The Cuerpo de Intendencia ( Supply Corps ) of the Spanish Army has as Badge a sun topped with a crown and circled with a double wreath of laurel . but the sun is faceless .

    Hi Lambert,

    Uruguay has coins with a radiant sun with a face, and a medal, too. I know no more!
