Description
Original Item – Only One Set Available. This official pair of 2006 medals was issued to commemorate the 800th anniversary of the founding of the Great Mongolian State, marking one of the most historically significant milestones in Mongolian history. Celebrating the rise of the Mongol Empire under Chinggis Khan, these medals were part of a nationwide recognition program honoring heritage, identity, and continuity from the 13th century to the modern state.
The set includes two distinct variations, each featuring a portrait of Chinggis Khan on the obverse with subtle differences in engraving style and finish, reflecting separate production runs. Both medals are suspended from blue enamel top bars with gilt combining traditional symbolism with modern commemorative design. The reverses display English inscriptions referencing the 800th anniversary, making them particularly appealing to international collectors as well as regional specialists.
While these medals were distributed during the anniversary celebrations, complete pairs of both variations are far less commonly preserved together. This set represents not only an important commemorative issue tied to the Mongol Empire but also a collectible artifact of modern Mongolia’s effort to honor its imperial legacy, making it a meaningful addition for collectors of Mongolian history and state awards.
