Description
ALGÉRIE - ALGERIA Louis-Philippe I (1830-1848). Medal, Battle of Isly, by Depaulis and Merley 1844 (refrappe early 20th c.), Paris. Esc.18 - Ruedas 21 ; Bronze - 208.30 g - 75.5 mm - 12 h From the Pierre-René Bauquis collection. Hallmark BRONZE on the edge. Medal difficult to find in original mintage. A superb medal. The Battle of Isly, which took place on 14 August 1844, saw Marshal Bugeaud's French troops crush the army of the Moroccan Sultan Moulay Abderrahmane for having supported Abd el-Kader's resistance. This decisive victory enabled France to secure its conquests in Algeria while imposing the Treaty of Tangiers on Morocco, which marked the end of Moroccan aid to Algerian insurgents.
