Spain Commemorative Medal for the Rif Campaign Morocco 1909

SPAIN: Commemorative Medal for the Rif 
Campaign (North Morocco) against the Berbers. 
The Rif Campaign took place during the period 
1908 -1909 following a Berber attack on Spanish 
mines. 
After the initial failures (the Spanish Army in the 
area was poorly equipped and trained, outdated 
and outnumbered) and following the arrival of 
regular reinforcements from Spain, the Spanish 
managed to prevail and even expanded their rule 
deeper in the Morocco coast. 
The medal was instituted in 1910, during the reign 
of King Alfonso XIII. 
It was awarded to Spanish military personnel for 
meritorious service and it is quite rare.
