Tibet Medal 1904, bronze, no bar, Cooly Jay Lal Limbu, Supply and Transport Corps.
Officially engraved in fine running script: “Cooly Jay Lal Limbu S & T Corps.” Unworn condition, an attractive example with some lustre.
The Limbu name is associated with the indigenous Sino-Tibetan Limbu people of the Himalayan region of Eastern Nepal, Sikkim and Western Bhutan.
