Sorry to say that, but for an honor award this engraving is very poor. I cannot imagine that for such a honorable occasion the donor would have accepted such a poor work from the engraver.
Additionally there is a spelling mistake in the inscription.
I would be very sceptical that this is a period engraving.
If there is a spelling mistake this would be a BIG red flag for me. So I would really like to know more about this. Please tell us which word is spelled incorrectly.
