jimn Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Hello Everybody I have one of these medals without the engravers name SPERANZA on the obverse. Can someone tell me the difference between these two variants? Cheers Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Lang Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Hello, the "Campagne d'Africa" Medal, bearing the "SPERANZA" name under King Humbert I's bust, is the official, award type. Any other variation has to be considered as being for private purchase, produced by various firms, after the authorized type/model. All the best, Enzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimn Posted June 17 Author Share Posted June 17 Thank you for this information. I was interested to learn recently that Italy awards campaign medals to recipients without charge. I had always thought everything was private purchase Kind regards Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
