BalkanCollector Posted September 6, 2019 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!
Taz Posted September 6, 2019 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
BalkanCollector Posted September 6, 2019 Author Posted September 6, 2019 Thank you very much for the clarification Eddie!
Taz Posted September 6, 2019 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
