      3. Medal for the African Campaigns (Medaglia per le Campagne d’Africa)

      I would like to know first, how many different clasps exist for that medal? I know it was established by Royal Decree 463 of 3 November 1894 but when awarding stopped?

      I presume it is not scarse medal but is there as well different types, etc and in this case what type mine would be? No clasp unfortunately.

        Hi,

        yes the first medal is the 13th Infantry Regiment 1915-1917.
        The second medal confirm is the first type or type A the medal
        was therefore coined privately for those who took part in the
        Albania expedition from the 7th to the 16th of April 1939.
        The Medal for the African Campaigns exist 30 different bars/clasps.
        They could also receive silver bars for every fight they took part in.
        The granting of this medal ceased in 1935 with east Africa campaign
        The model with "Speranza" inscription and crowned Z, was surely
        produced during the Kingdom of Vittorio Emanule III.

        "six italians, dressed in rather unusual diving suits and equipped with materials of laughably little cost have swung the military balance of power in the Mediterranean in favour of the Axis".
