Specification
FRANCE: Valor and Discipline Medal (or simply 
"Military Medal" in French) for military merit. 
Dated 1870.
Maker marked by the Paris Mint & hallmarked 
"1" for silver purity.
With its diploma of issue, signed by the Grand 
Chancellor of the Legion of Honor, to an NCO 
(Corporal) of the 162nd Infantry Regiment, for 
his services during the Great War. 
The diploma is numbered and it is dated 1923.
This is the 7th version of the medal that was 
issued during the period of the 3rd French 
Republic (specifically during the years 1910 
to 1951).
The Military Medal was created by Emperor Louis 
Napoleon in 1852 to be awarded specifically to 
non-commissioned officers (NCOs) and soldiers 
for completion of 8 years of military service, for 
bravery in front of the enemy as well as for acts 
of courage and devotion to duty. 
The military medal ranks 3rd among the Decora-
tions and Orders of the French Republic, being 
inferior only to the Order of the National Legion 
of Honor and to the Order of the Liberation. 
There are nine main versions and nearly 30 
variations of the medal.
