Médaillon Des Deux Épées
The Médaillon Des Deux Épées (Medallion of the Two Swords – commonly known as the "Medalllion of Veterancy", Médaillion de Vétérance, in French) was a French military award in the 18th century. The medal was established on 16 April 1771 by King Louis XV for the Army, and on 25 December 1774 by King Louis XVI for the Navy.
