Medal For Long-Time Conjugal Intercourse.
(Medal Za Dlugoletnie Pozycie Malzenskie)
There are not many nations that awarded medals for long married life. Poland was one of them. The medal was Instituted by the act of Parliament of February 17, 1960. Awarded to couples who were married for at least fifty years. The only other requirement that had to be met was that the couple had at least one child, either their own or adopted. Before this medal was instituted the couples were awarded the Cross of Merit which rather underlines the strange any varying award critaria of this medal. The medal itself is Silver with a diameter of 35mm. On the obverse is a cross of six equal arms with an ornament between them. In the center there is a pink medallion depicting two crossed silver roses. On the reverse are the Letters RP (PRL until 1990) with the circumscription ZA DLUGOLETNIE POZYCIE MALZENSKIE (for long marital life). The Ribbon is 35 mm, pink with a white central stripe. Eddie.
