Summary[edit]

Description
English: Dunbar victory medal showing Cromwell's bust and the Army's battle cry on the day, "The Lord Of Hosts". An official medallist, Mr. Symonds, was depatched to Edinburgh from London to create the Lord General's likeness. Parliament had the medal struck for the combatants, in gold for officers and silver for men. It is believed to be the first medal to be granted to all the ranks of an army and was worn by a cord or chain around the neck.
