Circular bronze medal with integral bar for ribbon suspension; the face with the head of King Vittorio Emanuele III facing left, circumscribed ‘VITTORIO EMANUELE III RE D’ITALIA’; the reverse inscribed ‘UNITÀ D’ITALIA 1848-1922’ within a circular laurel wreath; on replaced correct ribbon. The medal was instituted on 18 August 1940 and updated the 1848-1918 Medal issued in 1922 to reflect the Expedition to Fiume and the March on Rome and was awarded to participants in either of those two events. A number of versions are known by different makers; this is the official version. The Medal is much rarer than the earlier version.
