The King Haakon VII 1905–1930 Jubilee Medal (Norwegian: Kong Haakon VIIs jubileumsmedalje 1905–1930), also known as the King's Jubilee Medal (Norwegian: Kongens jubileumsmedalje), is a Norwegian award instituted in 1930 by Haakon VII of Norway in honor of the 25th anniversary of his accession to the throne.[1] The medal has been conferred upon 397 people.[2]
The King Haakon VII 1905–1930 Jubilee Medal is made of silver and is 33 mm in diameter. The obverse depicts King Haakon VII with the inscription "HAAKON • VII • NORGES • KONGE •" (Haakon VII King of Norway). The reverse shows the royal monogram. The medal was created by the engraver Ivar Throndsen.[3] The medal is fitted to a royal crown and hangs from a red medal ribbon. The medal ribbon has a silver clasp reading "1905–1930."[2]
Later the King Haakon VII 1905–1955 Jubilee Medal (Norwegian: Kong Haakon VIIs jubileumsmedalje 1905-1955), the King Haakon VII Commemorative Medal (Norwegian: Kong Haakon VIIs minnemedalje), and the King Haakon VII Centennial Medal (Norwegian: Kong Haakon VIIs 100-årsmedalje) were given the same design as the King Haakon VII 1905–1930 Jubilee Medal, but the ribbon clasps and inscriptions were modified to match the occasions they marked.[4] [5]
