BalkanCollector Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Does anyone have any information about this medal? What was it awarded for and how many were awarded/made? Should have been a name engraved in the center of it's reverse? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) It is a French Lifesaving medal , Médaille des sauveteurs de la Sarthe Fais ton devoir. Sarthe is a French region and river, so i imagine for that area only. Regards Eddie Edited September 6, 2019 by Taz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Your welcome, Here is a rather poor pic with ribbon, apparently awarded by the Civil Protection service between 1816-1913. As for naming some are named with a date on the reverse. Regards Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
