Snobro110 Valued Member United States 137 Posts	Posted 10/19/2025 10:49 pm I've always had an interest in larger, older medals. It's pretty simple, if it's big and old, I love it! I believe this medal was created to appreciate Giuseppe in his role in unifying Italy, but there is not much info available online. I got it about a year ago for $30 from my work! Let me know what you think of it! Report this Post to the Staff

Snobro110 Valued Member United States 137 Posts	Posted 10/20/2025 4:04 pm I learned that the Deliverance of Sicily was an Allied invasion and conquest of the island during WWII, codenamed Operation Husky. This led to the downfall of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. Report this Post to the Staff
