The Victory Medal for the Allies

A medal belongs to ʾasʿad Habib Salim (Dr. Mikhaʾil Toubasi's uncle in low) where he worked for the British Government. This medal was given as a sign of victory after an agreement was held between Britain and its allies to create medals and victory badges. It's upper side has a symbolic feature of an individual with two wings symbolising victory, as for the other side it states with English "The Great War to Civilisation" 1914-1919. The ribbon is colored with the colors of a rainbow and they don't have any symbolic meaning or intention.
