Medal of the Kadesh Operation - Silver-Plated Bronze - The Shamir Brothers - Extremely Rare - Silver-plated bronze medal designed by the Shamir brothers. The medal was given by Prime Minister David Ben Gurion in 1957 to French military men (pilots and crew members) in appreciation for their part in the Kadesh Operation. Only thirty pieces had been issued! Listed by the Kagan catalog under clause PM-1. Naturally, since the 30 medals were given to French military men, they have never reached collectors. Extremely rare! Diameter: 80 mm. Weight: 270 gram.
