Let me add the rules and list of opened topics here if you don't mind:


Let's go country by country.

Lets add one item per message we have in our collections connected to world war I. The item can be anything collectible. Coins, medals, military memoriables, photos, stamps, but the rule is it has to belong to you.

Lets do historical research to identify our post and add in as much as we can on the subject. Please add in anything you can on the subject, photos, links, whatever.

You do not have any items from the WWI? Ok, you can help by outlining the history of that nation in WWI. Add maps maybe?

I got this coin in a random lot, I have always liked it, sorry for the poor photo, 1917

  I don't actually know how Egypt was involved in WW1, I guess I need to look it up!

I have two of these 1919 Egypt peace medals in my collection, each with different ribbons. The rainbow one is normally found on the interallied victory medals of WWI so is almost certainly a replacement. The second one (green) could be genuine. Does anyone know what the original ribbon or fastening would have looked like and do you know how many of these medals were originally issued?
