Enemy Bronze medal: awarded to solderiers who served for at least 4 months in war zones. The words " coined in the enemy bronze" derives from the coining: in fact the molden bronze of the Austrian cannons was used. The full name is Commemorative Medal of the Italian-Austrian WAr coined in the Enemy Bronze. THe ribbon is tricolor repeated 6 times.
The medal depicts on the front (front) the image of His Majesty King Vittorio Emanuele III (facing left) with the helmet and in uniform and the inscription "
War for the Unification of Italy 1915-1918
", alternating with laurel.
At the back (rear) there is represented the "winged victory", supported by two shields supported by soldiers.
Around the phrase "
Coined in the Enemy Bronze
".
The incisions on the medal instead indicated: the name of the sculptor, in this case, S.Canevari (on the right, a little below the Sovereign's helmet), and the company producing the medals
, marked with the personal logo (placed under the
picture of the Sovereign):
The
Italian Front
was a series of battles at the border between
Austria-Hungary
and
Italy
, fought between 1915 and 1918 in
World War I
. Following the secret promises made by the
Allies
in the
Treaty of London
, Italy entered the war in order to annex the
Austrian Littoral
and northern
Dalmatia
, and the territories of present-day
Trentino
and
South Tyrol
. Although Italy had hoped to gain the territories with a surprise offensive, the front soon bogged down into
trench warfare
, similar to the
Western Front
fought in France, but at
high altitudes
and with very cold winters. Fighting along the front displaced much of the civilian population, of which several thousand died from malnutrition and illness in Italian and Austrian refugee camps.
The Allied victory at
Vittorio Veneto
and the disintegration of Austria-Hungary ended the military operations.
Hard to find with an original ribbon which is fresh but has a few cuts as seen in the photo
