Product Description: A rare and historically significant British WWI Victory Medal, complete with the SIBERIA clasp, awarded to British personnel who served in the Allied intervention in Russia (1918–1920) following the Russian Revolution. Struck in bronze, the medal features the classical winged figure of Victory on the obverse, while the reverse bears the inscription “THE GREAT WAR FOR CIVILIZATION 1914-1919.” The WWI Victory Medal is suspended from its original rainbow-colored silk ribbon, symbolizing the unity of the Allied nations.
Historical Description: The SIBERIA clasp was awarded to members of the British North Russia Expeditionary Force and other units deployed to Siberia as part of the Allied intervention against the Bolshevik forces following the Russian Civil War. These forces were tasked with protecting supply lines, supporting White Russian factions, and countering Bolshevik influence. This campaign was one of the most obscure and politically complex operations of WWI’s aftermath, marking one of the few times British forces fought on Russian soil.
With its scarcity and historical significance, this Victory Medal with SIBERIA clasp is a highly sought-after piece, offering a unique connection to Britain’s little-known involvement in postwar Russia.
