Description |
English: A modern silver medal with the date AD 1897. The medal is circular with a lipped edge. The medal has an integral cast laterally-pierced loop with a further loop suspended. This additional loop was either for a ribbon or possibly suggests that it was reused as a chain fob for a watch. The obverse depicts two figures beneath a palm tree. The figure on the left is standing holding a jug upon her head, wearing a floor length dress. The figure on the right is seated with a jug resting on the ground. The obverse is inscribed clockwse 'ARMY TEMPERANCE MEDAL. INDIA.' The reverse is inscribed in the centre over three lines: 'WATCH / AND / BE SOBER', decorative arabesques are positioned above and below and are all contained within a beaded border. Around the external edge again clockwise: 'ARMY TEMPERANCE ASSOCIATION 1897'.
Apart from the change of name, the medal is identical to that of The Soldiers' Total Abstinence Association 1862 to 1897. The medal was awarded for a year's total abstinence. The original recepiants name is not recorded. The medal measures 34.63 mm in diameter, Thickness: 2.79 mm and weighs 19.79 g |
