History


The Medal of the Cretan Revolution was created by the autonomous Cretan State in 1898. It was intended for those who fought in the Cretan Revolution, but it was never actually awarded.

The Silver Medal features an obverse inscription that translates to "Faith and Country," and a reverse inscription that translates to "Liberty."
