Duncan Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Can someone please identify this medal and tell me what it was awarded for. Its dated 1916 but not sure its anything to do with the war. Thank you, Duncan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) Looks similar to: 1914 1916 WW1 French 37mm silver medal by Lagrange agriculture antique sower - the reverse is different though. There is one here on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/254998941474 Edited August 15, 2022 by graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graham Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Duncan, what is written on the reverse of the medal, cannot quite make it out from the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Boonzaier Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I think maybe a regional medal for agriculture? Nothing national. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The obverse seems to have been used on quite a few medals and plaques. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
