The July Revolution Medal (Medalla por la Revolución de Julio) was authorized by the government of Argentina, in recognition of the loyalty of the troops that defend the legitimate government of Buenos Aires against to revolutionary troops at the Revolución del Parque (July Revolution) in July 16, 1890.
