France 1909 Silver Morocco Campaign Medal

€55.00

Offered is a scarce campaign medal issued by the French government to those who partook in the 1907-12 interventions in Morocco. Struck in silver by the Monnaie de Paris, this attractive 30mm medal features a pleasing gunmetal patina, and retains it's original suspension, despite not being on the green & white ribbon on which it was awarded. Much scarcer than the later service medals with Morocco bar, this unusual colonial piece is both appealing and fascinating.
