Medal “For the Defence of the Caucasus” is shot through with a bullet. This is a amazing and unique military relic that illustrates all horror and cruelty of war. According to distant relatives, this medal belonged to a veteran of the WWII (from 1943 to 45) and the Korean War (from 1951 to 1953) Our main motto. We do not sell objects, we sell the history. The medal is a part of an unusual private collection of “wounded” military relics. This collection contains things that were shot through with bullets, pierced by shards or shrapnel, hacked by swords… Alex, a military enthusiast, has been collecting these unique things throughout Europe during ten years. Perhaps, this is one of the most unusual collections in the world! This is not just a military artifact – a human life is behind of each of these things..
Discovered in an estate sale in Richmond, Va. This very rare medal was awarded by The Army & Navy Cub to Colonel Walter Metcalf, an officer in World War I. I’ve been unable to find any other example of a medal ever awarded by The Army & Navy Club. The relief on the medallion depicts two World War I soldiers in Army and Navy uniforms and is dedicated “to General Officers and Flag Officers” “1920″. The medal has been kept in very good condition, as shown. The Army & Navy Club was founded in 1885 as an exclusive, private club in the heart of the nation’s capital. It was established as a meeting place for military officers to share their stories, ideas and experiences with each other, and over the years, it has expanded, continuing to be very exclusive and prestigious. Today the Army and Navy Club is a Five Star Platinum Club that counts among its members some of America’s top Admirals and Generals, members of Congress and public servants. The medal was designed and made by the firm of Dieges & Clust, founded in 1898 in New York. Dieges & Clust is known for high quality and fine design and the company produced many medals including New York’s Spanish-American War Medal, the 1904 Olympic Medal, and the Medal of Honour. They also made baseball’s first ever Most Valuable Player Award and the first ever Heisman Trophy as well as numerous other sports related rings, awards and trophies.

ORIGINAL WORLD WAR I UNITED STATES NAVY VICTORY MEDAL W/ WEST INDIES CLASP, & FULL WRAP BROOCH. RIBBON DRAPE TESTED U. The World War I Victory Medal is a service medal of the United States military which was first created in 1919, designed by James Earle Fraser. The medal was originally intended to be created due to an act of the United States Congress, however the bill authorizing the medal never passed, leaving the service departments to create the award through general orders. The United States Army published orders authorizing the World War I Victory Medal in April 1919 and the U. Navy followed in June of that same year. Known until 1947 simply as the “Victory Medal”, the World War I Victory Medal was awarded to any member of the U. Military who had served in the armed forces between the following dates in the following locations. 6 April 1917 to 11 November 1918 for any military service. 12 November 1918, to 5 August 1919 for service in European Russia. 23 November 1918, to 1 April 1920 for service with the American Expeditionary Force Siberia. The front of the bronze medal features a winged Victory holding a shield and sword on the front. The back of the bronze medal features “The Great War For Civilization” in all capital letters curved along the top of the medal. Curved along the bottom of the back of the medal are six stars, three on either side of the center column of seven staffs wrapped in a cord. The top of the staff has a round ball on top and is winged on the side. The staff is on top of a shield that says “U” on the left side of the staff and “S” on the right side of the staff. On left side of the staff it lists one World War I Allied country per line: France, Italy, Serbia, Japan, Montenegro, Russia, and Greece. On the right side of the staff the Allied country names read: Great Britain, Belgium, Brazil, Portugal, Rumania (spelled with a U instead of an O as it is spelled now), and China. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you!
