Rev.: ЗA / XPAБPOCTb / No 26435 / 3 CTEΠ , centre in two lines the wording "FOR BRAVERY", below the recipient's impressed or engraved award registration number followed by the class of the award. Diakov 1133.9. . St. George Medal Instituted in August 1878 in four classes as the Medal for Bravery awarded to non-commissioned officers and enlisted men for bravery during peace or war. In 1913 the title of the medal was changed to "St George Medal for Bravery". The medal can be awarded to civilians for bravery during times of war. Awarded for merit in combat. Associated with the Order of St. George, but ranking below that of the the Cross of St. George. The St. George Medal came in four classes. Gold medallions for 1st and 2nd class. Silver medallions for 3rd and 4th. A bow on the ribbon denoted 1st class and 3rd. The medal was awarded for merit to other Allied soldiers as well as Russians. Obverse the bust of the reigning Emperor with his title. Reverse centre in two lines the wording FOR BRAVERY, below the recipient's impressed award registration number followed by the class of the award. This 28 mm version of the Bravery Medal was manufactured only in 1915 and issued through December 1916. During the time of the Provisional Government (March - November 1917), the bust of the Emperor was replaced by St George slaying the dragon. If there is a chance to find the name of the person of this award number ? Probably war, revolution and time swept everything away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
