Manufactured in the USA by N.S. Meyer Inc.

These are leftover surplus from the original minting of the first medals issued by N.S. Meyer in the early 20th Century. Neat little artifacts. Would look great mounted in displays or on wooden grips…. Buy 2 and display both sides! Limited Supply. When they’re gone, they’re gone forever.

Made in the USA

These are NEW OLD STOCK from the factory leftovers, never issued or mounted on a ribbon drape.

COLLECTOR’S NOTES: The Cuban Pacification Medal was created by orders of the United States War Department on May 11, 1909. The medal was created to recognize service during the United States occupation of Cuba from 1906 to 1909.

To be awarded the Cuban Pacification Medal, a service member was required to serve in the United States occupation force, garrisoned on the island of Cuba between October 6, 1906, and April 1, 1909. The Cuban Pacification Medal was also issued to naval personnel who served ashore in Cuba between September 12, 1906, and April 1, 1909, or who were attached to any of a number of ships serving in the area within this time frame.

There was no minimum service time required for presentation of the award, and a service member could technically receive the Cuban Pacification Medal for only a few days of service.

Colonel Harland Sanders was awarded the medal for his service as an army Wagoner in Cuba from 1906 to 1907.
