Honourable East India Company Medal for the Coorg Rebellion 1837, silver, later striking with fitted silver suspension loop The medal was given to those Coorgs who remained loyal to the Honourable East India Company's Government during the Canara insurrection. 300 medals were given to inferior leaders and others who distinguished themselves. A number of later issues were struck which include this example, which is easily identified by the cutting edge of the large Coorg knife being polished away (the original issues have a distinct line).
