    I have seen medals like this before---Italian Royal Army shooting medal, but missing the tricolor ribbon.

    It is an Italian Army medal. It should have been used as some sort of a prize for shooting challenges between corporals and standard soldiers.
    Don't know the story behind it, I just read what is written on it.
    It is pretty common, I have seen them selling in the 10-15 euros range in Italy.
