Kim
Khanh - (1957-1975)
The
Republic of Vietnam (1955-1975) adopted and awarded the Kim Khanh during
the 18 of its 20-year period of its existence. It was bestowed in four
classes (exceptional, 1st, 2nd and 3rd). Its design was noticeably different
than that of its predecessor with the Chinese calligraphy replaced by
scholar's scrolls. This was just one of a plethora of medals adopted and
awarded by the Republic of Vietnam.
