Description: Here on offer is a rare and unusual large commemorative gilt bronze medallion that celebrates the 50th anniversary of the formation of the Pakistan Navy back in 1947. I can’t find any reference to this medallion and given the superb quality of the casting, I suspect it was made for a high raking Navy official. It comes with its original grey felt lined plastic case. The medallion is very heavy and I believe is cast from bronze with a thick and beautifully applied gilt finish. The obverse of the medallion depicts the raised image of the Pakistan Navy surrounded by an oval ribbon with the words: 50 YEARS OF COMMANDING THE SEAS PAKISTAN NAVY1947 - 1997 The reverse has the image of a Pakistan Navy frigate from the 1990’s. The medallion measures 2.75” (7cm) diameter and weighs a heavy 196g. Please see my pictures for the details of the condition, which complement this description. Please note that this item is also being offered for sale on my own website BOAS Militaria at a reduced price and therefore may be withdrawn at any time. International bidders please contact me with your details, for a shipping quote BEFORE purchasing.
