France - Etoile Civique Award, Gold (Gilt) Degree

$45.00

Offered is a striking 70mm gilt bronze and enamel Etoile Civique, gold degree. This example of the much scarcer, large format unsuspended type, awarded to one E. Guyard in 1994. Condition overall is excellent, with the anomaly in the ray at 7 being a manufacturing defect.

Created by the Academie Francaise in 1930, the Etoile Civique is meant to honor those who ‘contribute to the enrichment of the community, improve social life, and advance the progress of humanity’ in a manner which displays ‘hard work, selflessness, or sacrifice.’

All in all, a very appealing and scarce piece.
