The King George V Silver Jubilee Medal was issued in 1935 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the accession of King George V to the throne on 6 May 1910. The medal was presented to members of the Royal Family, government officials, armed forces personnel, and selected civilians in recognition of their service during the King’s reign.
Awarded in silver to distinguished individuals chosen by the government and military authorities. Recipients included senior military officers, public servants, community leaders, and representatives of various organisations. The distribution was limited, making the medal a prized commemorative award.
The circular silver medal features conjoined left-facing busts of King George V and Queen Mary on the obverse. The reverse displays the royal cypher of King George V, flanked by the dates 1910 and 1935, surrounded by an ornate wreath and surmounted by the Tudor Crown.
The ribbon is dark blue with narrow white stripes at each edge, representing loyalty and the enduring service of the Crown.
SPECIFICATIONS:Every replica medal can be supplied loose or mounted ready to wear. Here's how the options differ, so you can choose the right one.
The medals are fixed to a stiff backing board so they sit flat and stay in line while worn. It's the neatest presentation, and serving members of the Australian Defence Force are required to wear their medals court mounted.
Each medal hangs freely from its ribbon below a top bar. This was the usual style from the Boer War through to World War II, and there are no fixed rules about who can wear it.
Just the ribbons, mounted in order of precedence on a small bar. Ribbon bars are worn on uniform day to day, when full medals would be impractical.
The medal and ribbon come as separate parts, ready for you or your mounter to assemble. Full size medals come with 30cm of ribbon and miniatures with 15cm.
Miniatures are mounted the same way at a smaller scale. They're worn at evening and formal events, generally anything after 6pm such as dinners, where full size medals would be impractical.
Every style comes with a traditional pin or a magnetic fitting. Magnetic mounts hold firmly without putting holes in your jacket or uniform, and are easier to put on and take off, which helps anyone with limited dexterity.
