Delhi Durbar Medals were instituted by the United Kingdom to commemorate the Delhi Durbar where the new Emperor of India was proclaimed, in 1903 for Edward VII, and in 1911 for George V.[1] On both occasions the medals were one and a half inches in diameter and were awarded in both gold and silver.[2] They were worn in date order alongside Coronation and Jubilee medals on the left chest, suspended from a ribbon one and a quarter inches wide.[3] These Royal commemorative medals were worn before campaign medals until November 1918,[4] after which the order of wear was changed, with them now worn after campaign medals and before long service awards.[5]
