For your consideration is this extremely rare WWI Silver medal awarded to American Army Air Service aviators training in Foggia Italy by the Italian government (around 400 began training - and it's unknown how many passed and rated this medal). The front of the medal shows the crossed flags of America and Italy and reads: “CAMPO SCUOLA AVIATORI FOGGIA OVEST", which translates to "Aviators School Camp Foggia West" and the reverse shows the Italian Cadet Pilot emblem in nice relief detail - it flies over where the recipient could engrave his name (This one is Engraved to an aviator with the initials "SG" or "GS"). This medal is quite rare, so rare in fact, that average collectors are unaware of its existence and avid collectors may still be searching, unable to locate one in Italy or America. The condition is excellent (only two other examples could be found online) but we encourage you to study our high-resolution photos for exact detail. It is unknown if these every came with a ribbon or attachment as both other known examples were in the exact state as the one we are offering here. It measures approximately 1" across.
