Part of a medal?

[KSdiver]

Not sure, but I believe this is part of a medal - it looks like a state or country in the middle portion.
Any ideas of date?

Reminds me of those military shoulder pad things. Has it a fixing on the reverse or solder mark?

Received a post from Voriax on another forum...

"Looks like it is part of the Kuwait Liberation Medal, granted by Saudi Arabia."

Could the country be Australia? Monty

The Kuwait Liberation Medal is what i would say also, it was given out to Coalition forces during Desert Storm for service between the dates of January 17, 1991 and February 28, 1991.

With that dime in the pic it looks kinda small for a military medal. Does anyone have dimensions on the Kuiwait Lib Medal?

In regards to the size they make mini medals that are worn on mess dress and other semi formal occasions. the dont mount by a pin on the back but they mount on a regular ribbon rack and just hang out and dangle. The minis are scaled to exactly on half the size of the full size.

Yep it is the mini medal
Here is a pic of one

The country looks different on the normal sized one. HH,
