A Spanish Military Merit Medal With Case Auction when rebel troops entered MexicoIn silver, 43mm, solid construction, very well detailed, circa 1938 period issue, with nice old patina, in very fine condition; in case of issue (case is scuffed, soiled, reverse portion detached, thus in good fair condition). Footnote; the ribbon is of newer manufacture, as a result of the veterans often wearing the medal, and thus keep replacing ribbon with new ones. This medal was not prohibited for wear as was a case in Germany for instance.
