Original Item: Only Set Available. This is a lovely US WWI Victory Medal lot which features two different examples of Navy Victory medals with clasps.

The medals themselves are in good condition but do exhibit tarnishing. The ribbons are worn but that wear accentuates the authenticity of the awards.

The Battle Clasps Featured Are:
- Submarine - Submarine duty performed on the Atlantic Ocean. This is one of the scarcest navy examples to find, and this one is the rarer small version as opposed to the private purchase large size. Some fraying. 
- Overseas - Service on shore in allied or enemy countries of Europe. Another of the scarcer variety. A Great example! Some fraying as shown. 

The World War I Victory Medal (known prior to establishment of the World War II Victory Medal in 1945 simply as the Victory Medal) was a United States service medal designed by James Earle Fraser of New York City under the direction of the Commission of Fine Arts.
